Order Thysanoptera include approximately 6000 species across the globe in which nearly 700 species are reported from India (Thrips Wiki 2013), accounting for about 10% of the total world fauna. In spite of excellent efforts on taxonomy to reveal the biodiversity of these tiny (1-2 mm), and economically important insect (as crop pest and vectors for tospoviruses) in India, we still have geographical regions which are practically unsurveyed for thrips biodiversity; Chhattisgarh is one of them along with Gujarat, Odisha and Sikkim etc.
