in this study, two aphid species i.e. macrosiphoniella vallesiacae jörg & lample, 1988 on artemisia aucheri and a. sieberi and uroleucon pilosellae (börner, 1933) (hem.: aphididae) on scorzonera sp. were collected which are reported here for the first time from iran. the biometric data of the iranian populations of these two aphid species are given. an identification key to the apterous vivipar...

The genus Delfinoia Nieto Nafría & Mier Durante gen. n. is established, and Utamphorophora peruviana (Essig), originally Amphorophora peruviana and currently Delfinoia peruvianacomb. n., is designated species type of the genus. The synonymy between this species and Wahlgreniella australis Delfino syn. n. is established. Apterous and alate viviparous females of D. peruviana are redescribed; the ...
