(kutu) trip thrip Explanation: Thrip is a type of pest that attacks mango fruit. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days 53 mins (2005-04-22 02:41:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Plural usage: Thrips (Thysanoptera) are tiny, slender insects with fringed wings (thus the scientific name, from the Greek thysanos (fringe) + pteron (wing)). Other common names include Thunderflies or Thunder bugs. Thrip species feed on a large variety of sources both plant and animal by puncturing them and sucking up the contents. A large number of thrip species are considered pests, because they feed on plants with commercial value. Some species of thrips feed on other insects or mites and are considered beneficial, while some feed on fungal spores or pollen. karyanet |
