| - Within the Thysanoptera the entirely New World family Heterothripidae contains four recent genera (MOUND & MARULLO 1996), namely Aulacothrips HOOD, 1952, Heterothrips HOOD, 1908, Lenkothrips DE SANTIS & SUREDA, 1970, and Scutothrips STANNARD, 1972. Whereas in Heterothrips and Scutothrips the antennal sensory areas are forming apical bands on segments III and IV, these sensory areas are drawing lateral loops in Lenkothrips and are even convoluted and extended almost to the base of the segments in Aulacothrips (MOUND et al. 1980). Lenkothrips is known by only one species: Lenkothrips sensitivus DE SANTIS & SUREDA, 1970, which was found in Brazil (Sao Paulo) and later on also in Ecuador (MOUND & MARULLO 1996). This study presents the description of a second species of this remarkable genus, which appears to be flower-living as most of the Heterothripidae (DEL CLARO et al. 1997). The specimens were caught together with different species of the genus Heterothrips on inflorescences of the liana Heteropterys multiflora (Malpighiaceae) in the canopy of a primary rain forest in French Guyana.
