Characteristics of 46 setae of the second stage larvae of four Hoplothrips species (Thysanoptera) are discussed with respect to their diagnostic value. Two different approaches, of which one is mathematical, for identification of the larvae are given.

Keywords: Thysanoptera, Hoplothrips, larvae, identification, mathematical approach
