Topic: Need for new entry - Psyllopsis fraxini (agg.)

Hi Chris,

We were advised by Joe Botting, Psyllid recording scheme, that any records of Psyllopsis fraxini which depend on galls need to be entered as Psyllopsis fraxini (agg.), as their galls are indistinguishable from those of P. discrepans and probably also P. distinguenda. Is it possible to add a entity: Psyllopsis fraxini (agg.) to the Dictionary?

Many thanks

Aisling

Re: Need for new entry - Psyllopsis fraxini (agg.)

Yes, that sounds reasonable - I have added it:

Psyllopsis fraxini agg. tvk NHMSYS0021003258

New aggregate created with the following components:
comp tvk NHMSYS0020472770
comp tvk NHMSYS0020705863
comp tvk NHMSYS0020705864

Many thanks :)
