Adults of nine species of thrips were collected from canola fields: Aeolothrips fasciatus (L.), Anaphothrips obscurus (Müller), Frankliniella occidentalis (Perg.), Frankliniella tritici (Fitch), Limothrips denticornis Haliday, Odontothrips loti (Haliday), Thrips nr. fuscipennis Haliday, Thrips tabaci Lindeman, and Thrips vulgatissimus Haliday. Of these, F. tritici was the most abundant in the collections and appears to have the greatest potential to be a significant canola pest, followed by T. tabaci and T. vulgatissimus.
