Hyadaphis foeniculi on anise crop in Pernambuco StateAbstract -Hyadaphis foeniculi (Passerini, 1860) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) was observed causing damage on anise crop, Pimpinella anisum L., in the Meridional "Agreste" region of Pernambuco State, Brazil. This is the first report of this species in the region.

The Biology and Thermal Requirements of the Fennel Aphid Hyadaphis foeniculi (Passerini) (Hemiptera: Aphididae)

“…It was introduced into Brazil by the first settlers and rapidly spread through the states of Bahia, Sergipe, Paraíba and Pernambuco [4]. Fennel is known to have therapeutic properties (digestive, diuretic and anti-inflammatory) [5] as well as culinary uses (soups, pastries and cakes).…”

“…By continually sucking the sap, it causes these organs to wilt and dry out, impairing the fennel seed [4] and damaging up to 80% of the yield [9] in non-intercropped fennel. Aphids are mainly controlled by chemical means.…”

Agro-Ecological and Varietal Effects on The Infestation of Two Types of Aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae) on Fennel Fruits and Essential Oil Under Middle and Upper Egypt Conditions

“…Fennel aphids; Hyadaphis foeniculi (Passerini) and also, the cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae (Linnaeus) affected the fennel seed yield and they considered major insect pests on fennel (Francisco et al, 2015). These aphids attack mainly flowers, fruits, and leaves by sucking the sap, causes wilt, dry of plant organs and impairing the fennel seed (Ferreira and Sousa-Silva, 2004).…”

Estimating the development of the fennel aphid, Hyadaphis foeniculi (Passerini) (Hemiptera: Aphiididae), using non‐linear models

“…1 -3 This aphid mainly attacks the inflorescence of the plant and can cause serious damage by continually sucking the sap, causing the flowers, fruits and leaves to wilt and dehydrate, and impairing the seeds. 4 Apart from the direct damage it causes to crops, H. foeniculi can transmit viruses such as mosaic potyvirus, yellow spot luteovirus and honeysuckle latent carlavirus. 5 It also encourages the growth of opportunist fungi, leading to the formation of sooty mould which impairs photosynthesis and fruit quality.…”
