Buckton, G. B. Monograph of the British Aphides. Vol. ii. (Ray Soc.) 
London: 1879, 8vo, pp. 176, pis. xxxix.-lxxxvi. 
' The present volume includes the following genera of Aphidince : 
Bhopalosiphum, MelanoxanthuSy Siphocoryne, A phis ^ Hyalopterus^ Chce- 
tophorus, Pterocomma, Cryptosiphum^ and Br achy coins. The British 
species belonging to these genera are fully described and figured, with 
notes on food-plants, habits, &c. The following synonyms occur, although 
the synonymy appears not to be given at length : Rhopalosiphum lactuccc^ 
Kalt., Pass., Walk., is distinct from Siphonophora lactucce^ Pass., or Koch, 
which are likewise distinct species. R. dianthi, Schr., = persicce, Morr. 
{nec Fonsc., Sulz., Kalt.), = rapes, florisrapce, and duhia ?, Curt.,= vastator, 
Smee, = persicicola, Boisd. ; Aphis cegopodii, Fabr., = Siphocoryne caprecs, 
and Rhopalosiphum pastinacece and cicutos, Koch, probably belong to the 
same species ; Aphis carotos, Koch, = suhterranea, AValk. ; A.malvce,y^dXk., 
Pass., &c., is distinct from Siphonophora malocs, Pass., which probably = 
S. pelargonii, Kalt. ; A. mali^ Fab,, — pomi, De Geer ; A. prunifex and 
calamaphis, Amyot, and ? prunifqlice^ Fitch, =:pruni, Rdaum. ; A.fabes^ 
Kirb., genistas, Scop., ? ulicis, Fabr., ? euphorbias, Kalt., A. dahlias 
and Cinara rumicis, Mosl., and rumici/ex and genistifex, Amyot, = 
rumicis, Linn.; A. chenopodii, Schr., = atriplicis, L. (? Fabr.); A. chry~ 
santhemi, Koch, and P leucanthemi. Scop., = cardui, L. ; A.pyri, Fonsc., 
is distinct from pyri, Koch ; A. persicce, Fonsc., Kalt., Walk., Koch, 
Pass., but not of Sulzer or Schrank, = amygdali, Fonsc. ; A, prunifex, 
Amyot, = Ilyalopterus pruni, Fabr. ; A . calamaphis, Amyot, = II. 
arundinis, Fabr. ; H. aquilegias, Koch, = trirhoala, Walk. ; Phyllophorus 
testudinatus, Thornton, Chelymorpha testudo, Clark, Periphyllus testudo, 
Hoev., and probably Aphis perforatus. Sign., = Chestophorus aceris, 
Linn., dimorphous forms ; Lachnus punctatus, Burm., ? = Chest, populneus, 
Kalt. The various insects {Neuroptera, Diptera, and Hymenoptera) which 
feed, or are parasitic on Aphides, are also discussed at some length, and 
various species are figured.
