Abstract
The available biological information on the association, unique to Aus tralia, between gall-inducing thrips and the phyllodes of Acacia speci es is summarised. Identification keys to the three genera and 21 gall- inducing species involved are presented, together with descriptions of nine new species (Kladothrips harpophyllae, Kladothrips maslini, Klad othrips xiphius, Oncothrips morrisi, Oncothrips schwarzi, Oncothrips s terni, Oncothrips torus, Onychothrips pilbara and Onychothrips zygus).
