AHDB Aphid News
The latest edition of AHDB Aphid News has been published.

Single Mealy cabbage aphids (Brevicoryne brassicae) were caught at Gogarbank and Wye suction trap sites.
The willow-carrot aphid (Cavariella aegopodii) was caught in four suction-traps this week. No male individuals were caught suggesting that the start of the autumn migration back to willows to overwinter has not yet begun.
