looks like mealy bugs to me. i’ve never dealt with these though, so i have no advice. but i will say if you’re bringing in new plants, constantly check them. they could be the source. and also quarantine this plant bc now it’s infected and could infect your others. good luck!

Thrips are black like these- mealy bugs are white and hairy looking. Not close enough to see the details though.
