Update on Rothamsted suction trap captures – week ending 24th July

A new edition of the Rothamsted Insect Survey Aphid Bulletin has been published (week ending 24th July). The latest edition of AHDB APHID News is here.

  • Numbers of peach–potato aphid (Myzus persicae) increased very slightly on last week, with highest numbers at Hereford. 
  • The numbers of willow ̶carrot aphid (Cavariella aegopodii) flying are now very low everywhere. 
  • A single currant-lettuce aphid (Nasonovia ribisnigri) was caught at Starcross. 
  • Numbers of parsnip aphids are low (Cavariella pastinaceae 2 at Newcastle, 3 at Kirton, 1 at Broom’s Barn and 2 at Starcross, but no Cavariella theobaldi). 
  • Numbers of the black bean aphid (Aphis fabae) are conspicuously low, both for the time of year and compared to the large migrations seen in 2015. 
  • Numbers of the pea aphid increased a little at 10 sites with highest numbers at Kirton, Broom’s Barn and Starcross.
