A Revision of the Genus Atheroides Haliday, 1839 (Hemiptera: Aphididae: Chaitophorinae)

摘要

The genus Atheroides Haliday, 1839 of the tribe Siphini (Aphididae: Chaitophorinae) is revised. Atheroides brevicornis, A. doncasteri, A. hirtellus, A. karakumi, and A. serrulatus are redescribed and figured. A new species, A. persianus sp. nov., is described and figured in detail on the basis of specimens collected in Iran and Turkey. A key to the identification of the known species of the genus Atheroides as well as differences with related species are given. Notes about the distribution and host plants are provided. http://zoolstud.sinica.edu.tw/Journals/48.5/693.pdf
