Molecular phylogeny and macroevolution of Chaitophorinae aphids (Insecta: Hemiptera: Aphididae)
The subfamily Chaitophorinae and two constituent tribes, Siphini and Chaitophorini, were retrieved as monophyletic. Chaitophorinae originated on Acer from eastern Asia during the Late Cretaceous to early Palaeocene. The origins of Siphini and Chaitophorus + Lambersaphis were associated with host shift.

Abstract Woolly apple aphid (WAA, Eriosoma lanigerum Hausmann) (Hemiptera: Aphididae) is a major pest of apple trees (Malus domestica, order Rosales) and is critical to the economics of the apple industry in most parts of the world. Here, we generated a chromosome‐level genome assembly of WAA—representing the first genome sequence from the aphid ...

'Drifting' Buchnera genomes track the microevolutionary trajectories of their aphid hosts. [PDF]
Thia et al. examine intraspecific genomic covariation between the aphid pest, Myzus persicae, and its primary endosymbiont, Buchnera aphidicola. They show that there are strong signals of correlated genomic differentiation between insects hosts and their endosymbionts across 43 different clonal lines. However, patterns of genomic covariation are likely

Flight activity and weed hosts of Macrosiphini (Homoptera: Aphididae) in Canterbury
Abstract The flight activity of 29 species of Macrosiphini, recorded over 6 years in a suction trap at Lincoln, is reported. Flight phenology and weed hosts of 20 species are described. The host plant relations of Myzuspersicae (Sulzer) were examined. Mallow (Malva neglecta Wallred) and black nightshade (Solarium nigrum L.) were favourable hosts, while

Abstract Greenhouse crops are thought to be simplified ecosystems because they often consist of monocultures that are relatively isolated from their environment. However, insect pests are still able to colonize these protected crops, which threaten their yields.

A new aphid genus and species (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Macrosiphini) living on ferns in Costa Rica and Mexico [PDF]
AbstractAphid species colonising ferns belong to the subfamily Aphidinae (Hemiptera: Aphididae) and the majority of these to the tribe Macrosiphini. A new genus in this tribe and its type species:Gibbomyzus pteridophytorumnew genus,new species, are established.

Two new species of the aphid genus Uroleucon (Hemiptera: Aphididae) living on Grindelia in the USA
Here, we present descriptions of two new aphid species of the genus Uroleucon Mordvilko, 1914 (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Macrosiphini), which are associated with the plant genus Grindelia Willd. (Asteraceae).

Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) aphid parasitoids of Malta : review and key to species [PDF]
This paper brings an annotated list of the 16 aphid parasitoids detected up to 2015 in Malta. All the species were reared from identified aphid-plant associations. An illustrated key to the identification of the recorded species from Malta is provided.
