Adraneothrips is a genus of thrips in the family Phlaeothripidae. The genus has its highest species diversity in the New World, particularly the Neotropics, though species are also known from Asia, Australia and Africa.
Many species in Adraneothrips have two-color patterns, and sexual dimorphism is limited. They are associated with leaf litter and other dead leaves, and are presumed mycophagous.
