The distribution of Dendrothrips aspersus Bhatti, a leaf-feeding thrips species, has so far been confined to India and Iran. Both sexes of the species were collected from olive suckers from Fars province, south of Iran. The male sex of Dendrothrips aspersus is recorded and described. The females had been previously collected on grasses in the same place, so the host association for this species is discussed briefly.
