 ervi Haliday. N. S. s. to Va. and Tenn., w. to Ont., Nebr., and Kans.; B. C, Wash., Oreg.; 



Europe, China, Taiwan, N. Afr., Mid. East. Introduced from France, Germany, Poland 

 and Lebanon. However, according to Stary (1974), ervi may have occurred in North 

 America prior to these releases. Host: Acyrthosiphon caragarMe (Cholod.), A. pisum 

 (Harr.), Aphis sp., Aulacorthum solani (Kalt.), Macrosiphum spp., M. euphorbiae 

 (Thomas), Microlophium evansi (Theo.), Myzus certus (Walk.), M. persicae (Sulzer), 

 Rhopalosiphum padi (L.). The exact identity and host range of ervi can not be stated 

 for certain until an extensive study of the group is made. The present classification and 

 host list is based on Stary (1974).
