Journal Title: Annals of the Upper Silesian Museum in Bytom, Entomology - Year 2017, Vol 26, Issue
Abstract
The paper presents data on the occurrence of two aphid species of North American origin in Poland: Illinoia liriodendri and Nearctaphis bakeri. First of them feeds on alien ornamental host plant – Liriodendron tulipifera, while the other is connected with clovers (Trifolium spp.) and other Fabaceae. Both were collected in 2015 in southern Poland and the possible means of their migration into territory of Poland are discussed.
