“…Based on allozyme data from Italian populations, Spampinato et al (1988) suggested that H. pruni is genetically distinct and H. amygdali is heterogeneous. This was confirmed by an extensive study of Italian and Sicilian populations of the taxa using allozyme markers (Mosco et al, 1997). These authors detected three taxa: the genetically close H. pruni and H. amygdali A and H. amygdali B. Hyalopterus pruni was collected from plum, apricot, and less frequently from blackthorn, Prunus spinosa L., cherry plum, Prunus cerasifera (Ehrh.…”

“…However, the present study targets taxa in which there is already evidence of host-associated genetic variation and reproductive isolation (Spampinato et al, 1988;Mosco et al, 1997). Generally, the three host-associated morphologically distinct groups found accord with the results of Mosco et al (1997).…”

“…This could be attributed to two factors, hybridization between taxa or an imperfect host association, especially by H. amygdali A. Mosco et al (1997) found no hybrids between H. pruni and either of the two H. amygdali taxa and only a few were detected between H. amygdali A and H. amygdali B. These authors also found "wrong choice" of host by both H. amygdali A and H. amygdali B in regions where the preferred host-trees of these taxa were absent.…”

Abstract. Morphometric variation of individuals in field collected samples of the Hyalopterus pruni complex from various Prunus species and regions of Greece was examined, to determine whether this variation is correlated with the host-trees from which the aphids originated. Morphometric data for 13 parameters of aphids from 74 field samples (760 adult apterae) were analysed by canonical variates analysis (CVA). Each sample was collected from a different tree and consisted of individuals from 2-3 neighbouring leaves from the same branch. Each field sample was used as a grouping factor in the CVA. The analysis produced three clusters corresponding to the taxa indicated by previous studies using allozyme markers (i.e., Hyalopterus pruni on apricot, blackthorn, plum and cherry, H. amygdali A on almond and H. amygdali B on peach). The separation was independent on the geographical origin of the samples. However, host associations within the complex were not absolute, and in particular the samples from apricot appeared to include both H. pruni and H. amygdali A. In contrast to previous views, the present study showed that the taxa have their own distinct morphology. Lastly, discriminant functions for separating the adult apterae of the taxa are given.

“…35.-According to Kadyrbekov (2001b) (Barbagallo et al, 1998;Lampel, 1968). The apterous fundatrigeniae (parthenogenetic females living on the primary host) are very difficult to differentiate morphologically (Basky & SzalayMarszó, 1987;Blackman & Eastop, 2000), even without considering genetic differences between two forms of H. amygdali: "form A" and "form B" (Mosco et al, 1997), whereas it seems possible to differentiate them by the bionomical criterion of the host plant. It is not possible to differentiate the apterous virginogeniae (parthenogenetic females living on the secondary host) and all the alatae females by morphological criteria in the light of data available at present and they can only be identified by plant transfer tests or by relating located populations to the trees where the alate fundatrigeniae emigrated from.…”

The check-list of species in the Tribe Aphidini (Hemiptera, Aphididae: Aphidinae) recorded to date from the Iberian Peninsula and Balearic Isles is presented, 139 species are listed. A list of the countries (Andorra, Spain and Portugal) and provinces (Spanish) or districts (Portuguese) where each species and subspecies is known is also included. Five species are mentioned for the first time in Iberian-Balearic territory: Aphis callunae Theobald, A. comosa (Börner) IntroductionTo date, 142 aphid species belonging to the Tribe Aphidini Latreille, 1802 (Hemiptera, Aphididae) in the taxonomical sense of Remaudière & Remaudière (1997), have been recorded from the IberianBalearic territory, with 13 species recorded from Andorra (Seco Fernández et al., 1998), 70 from continental Portugal (Ilharco, 1996;Aldryhim & Khalil, 1996;Ilharco, 2002) and 135 from peninsular Spain and the Balearic Isles (Nieto Nafría et al., 1984;Blackman & Eastop, 1984;Stroyan, 1984;Nieto Nafría et al. 1986;Meliá Masiá, 1986;Arcos & Cabello, 1988;Nieto Nafría et al., 1987;Mier Durante et al., 1989;Nieto Nafría et al., 1990a;Nieto Nafría et al., 1990b;Meliá Masiá, 1991;Nieto Nafría et al., 1991;Tizado Morales, 1991;Tizado Morales & Nieto Nafría, 1991;Meliá Masiá, 1995;Mier Durante et al., 1996;García Prieto & Sanchís Segovia, 1998;Michelena et al., 1998;Meliá Masiá, 2003).Within the framework of the research programme on Iberian-Balearic aphid fauna Nieto Nafría et al., 2003), we have reviewed the specimens belonging to the subtribe Aphidini (in the taxonomical sense according to Remaudière & Remaudière, 1997) in the aphid collection of Leon University [Department of Animal Biology], as well as the bibliographical references for specimens in other collections, some of which we have been able to study. ResultsAs a result of the study:(a) 5 species are included in the Iberian-Balearic check-list of Aphidini: Aphis callunae Theobald, 1915, A. comosa (Börner, 1950 THE IBERIAN-BALEARIC CHECK-LIST OF SPECIES AND SUBSPECIES BELONGING TO THE TRIBE APHIDINIThe provinces (in Spain) and districts (in Portugal) where they are known are listed. The national, provincial or district first record is indicated with an asterisk (*). For species with two or more subspecies the list of provinces and districts where the species was recorded includes those related to all its subspecies and also those corresponding to records without reference to subspecies.The Spanish provinces and Portuguese districts are given in Spanish and Portuguese, respectively. Different contributions for several species (on faunistics, morphology, taxonomy, bionomics or nomenclature) are given at the end of the list in "notes on the check-list".

Apricot aphid, Myzus mumecola (Matsumura), a new and important pest of apricot in Hungary

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Apricot aphid, Myzus mumecola (Matsumura) (Homoptera: Aphididae), was recorded as a new pest of apricot in Hungary in the spring of 2020. Identification was based on morphological and genetical (mitochondrial COI region) characteristics. M. mumecola most likely arrived in Hungary in the last 2–3 years and has quickly become a widespread pest causing significant damage to young apricot trees. Colony development, damage and differences in susceptibility between cultivars are described. The presence of Plum pox virus in M. mumecola samples was detected, and all isolates belonged to the PPV-D subgroup. Illustrations of the most important diagnostic characters of M. mumecola are provided.
