Shanxi Wild Herbs Aphid Species Resource Surveys And Research,

Studies of Aphidoidea (Hotnoptera) on wild herbs in Shanxi, China Abstract On the basis of consulting a mass of reference papers, this thesis systemically summarized the development on Aphids Taxonomy and Biology, and discussed the meaning of studying aphid-variety on wild herbs in Shanxi. By adopting the studying method of Compare-Morphology, I carried Through aphids microstructure identifying to 148 species, which were collected from the wild herbs in Shanxi, especially in Jinzhong, Jinnan, Jindongnan, Luliang and Xinzhou area. About 42 species which belong to 23 genuses of 2 families were named, including I new genus, 11 new species, I new subspecies and 2 new records, they were: Tubt icavariella Qiao et Zhang gen. fl.; Aphis polygonaphage Zhang sp. n, Aphis stachyphage Zhang sp. n., Brachysiphum broccituberculum Qiao et Zhang sp.n., Brachycolus aestivus Qiao et Zhang sp.n., Macrosiphomella pangquanensis Zhang sp. n., Macrosiphomella rufa Zhang sp. n., Macro- siphum allicorpum Zhang sp.n., Macrosiphum enteromorphnum Zhang sp.n, Phorodon breviantennum Zhang sp. n., Tenuilongiaphis tetra Qiao et Zhang sp. n., Tubricavariella cicutisucta Qiao et Zhang sp. ii.; Longicaudzss trirhodus shansiensis Zhang ssp. n.; and Aphis euphorbiae Kaltinbach, 1843, Aphis salicariae Koch, 1855. This thesis systemically described the aphid species which were named; and provided the key to aphids on herds in Shanxi, also portrayed the new taxonomic units.
