AMPHOROPHORA RHODODENDRONS, new species 



Figs. 59-61 



A slide bearing four apterous viviparous females was received from 

 Dr. Edith M. Patch (Maine No. 168-22). These were taken on 

 RJiododendron rhodora at Orono, Maine, July 21, 1922. They are not 

 typical Amphorophora but no doubt should be placed here, at least 

 until the alate in known. The host plant belongs to a family on which 

 are several members of this genus of aphids.
