• The Pollination of Mid Mesozoic Seed Plants and the Early History of Long-proboscid Insects1,2,3 (2010, unknown): “…(Norstog, 1987; Norstog & Fawcett, 1989; Crowson, 1991; Donaldson, 1992; Forster et al., 1994; Norstog et al., 1995; Tang, 1997; Wilson, 2002; Hall et al., 2004; Oberprieler, 2004), and also by the aeolothripid thrips Cycadothrips (Okajima, 2000; Mound & Terry, 2001; Terry et al., 2005).”
• Insects ‘Down Under’– Diversity, endemism and evolution of the Australian insect fauna: examples from select orders (2004, background): “…2004), is an Australian endemic that is associated only with the cones of Macrozamia cycads, of which these insects are important pollinators (Mound & Terry 2001; Terry 2001) This association of an apparently basal thrips clade with a basal clade of plants might suggest that thrips were…”
• Association of cone thermogenesis and volatiles with pollinator specificity in Macrozamia cycads (2004, background): “Although these cycads do have other insects (some of which are generalists) that utilize cone resources, their visits and interactions are restricted to only one plant sex (Forster et al. 1994, Mound and Terry 2001, Terry 2001).”
• Thrips and Weevils as Dual, Specialist Pollinators of the Australian Cycad Macrozamia communis (Zamiaceae) (2001, background): “However, until the late 1990s (Mound et al. 1998; Mound and Terry 2001), only beetles, primarily Tranes spp. (Coleoptera, Curculionidae), and wind were thought to be the pollen vectors.”
• The Flowers in Extant Basal Angiosperms and Inferences on Ancestral Flowers (2001, background): “Thrips as pollinators have also been observed in other magnoliids (e.g., Gottsberger 1977, 1988, 1999; Gottsberger et al. 1980; Thien 1980; Jürgens et al. 2000; Thien et al. 2000; Williams et al. 2001) and some cycads (Mound and Terry 2001).”
