Re: Another Aphid Neeed on the Dictionary
Dear Charles (Hussey),
Following on from the Aphid List I sent a while ago: the BBC News reports this morning have indicated that the Leylandii Aphid is causing considerable damage to Leylandii hedges across the country. The aphid causing the problem is actually called the Cypress Aphid (Cinara cupressi). It was incorporated within the list I sent but I do have a small amount of additional information - see details below:
Cypress Aphid Cinara cupressi Buckton, 1881 (Lachnus) (Heliptera: Aphididae) - earlier synonym : Cinara cupressivora Watson & Vogtlin
Cheers and thanks
Steve
