Abstract

Thirty-two thrips fossils were studied from the Bembridge Marls, late Eocene of the Isle of Wight, S. England. Two extant families are recorded, Aeolothripidae with two species and Thripidae with three species. Described as new are Sinaeolothrips Shmakov gen. n. (Aeolothrips brodiei Cockerell, 1917, type species), Aeolothrips jarzembowskii Shmakov sp. nov (Aeolothripidae) and Coccothrips hoffeinsorum Shmakov, sp.nov.(Thripidae: Panchaetothripinae). The genus Thrips is tentatively recorded as fossil for the first time. Taxonomic composition of thrips is close to the Recent ones.
