Common Name Proposal ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA 10001 Derekwood Lane, Suite 100, Lanham, MD 20706-4876 Phone: (301) 731-4535 • Fax: (301) 731-4538 E-mail: [email protected] • http://www.entsoc.org Proposal Form for new Common Name or Change of ESA-Approved Common Name Complete this form and send or e-mail to the above address. Submissions will not be considered unless this form is filled out completely. The proposer is expected to be familiar with the rules, recommendations, and procedures outlined in the “Use and Submission of Common Names” on the ESA website and with the discussion by A.B. Gurney, 1953, Journal of Economic Entomology 46:207-211. 1. Proposed new common name: blue alfalfa aphid 2. Previously approved common name (if any): none 3. Scientific name (genus, species, author): Acyrthosiphon kondoi Shinji Order: Hemiptera Family: Aphididae Supporting Information 4. Reasons supporting the need for the proposed common name: This common name has been in common usage in North America since it was officially reported from California in 1977 (Kono, T. 1977. Distribution and identification of Blue Alfalfa Aphid Acyrthosiphon kondoi Shinji (Homoptera: Aphididae). Cooperative Plant Pest Report 2(11): 153-156). This name was used in 17 of 30 refereed journal articles by North American authors, identified through an Entomology Abstracts search. A common name was not used in the others. Six of the 17 articles using this name were in ESA publications. That a Google search on the phrase “blue alfalfa aphid” yielded ca. 8500 hits is further evidence that the name is commonly used. 5.

We developed a list of pests associated with beans (in any country) that occur in Jordan on any host based on scientific literature, previous commodity risk assessments, records of intercepted pests at ports-of-entry, and information from experts on bean production. This is a qualitative risk assessment, as we express estimates of risk in descriptive terms (High, Medium, and Low) rather than numerically in probabilities or frequencies. We identified seven quarantine pests likely to follow the pathway of introduction. We estimated Consequences of Introduction by assessing five elements that reflect the biology and ecology of the pests: climate-host interaction, host range, dispersal potential, economic impact, and environmental impact. We estimated Likelihood of Introduction values by considering both the quantity of the commodity imported annually and the potential for pest introduction and establishment. We summed the Consequences of Introduction and Likelihood of Introduction values to estimate overall Pest Risk Potentials, which describe risk in the absence of mitigation.

Received: 13 May 2020; Accepted: 15 July 2020; Published: date Abstract: Potyviruses are the largest group of plant infecting RNA viruses that cause significant losses in a wide range of crops across the globe. The majority of viruses in the genus Potyvirus are transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent, non-circulative manner and have been extensively studied vis-à-vis their structure, taxonomy, evolution, diagnosis, transmission and molecular interactions with hosts. This comprehensive review exclusively discusses potyviruses and their transmission by aphid vectors, specifically in the light of several virus, aphid and plant factors, and how their interplay influences potyviral binding in aphids, aphid behavior and fitness, host plant biochemistry, virus epidemics, and transmission bottlenecks. We present the heatmap of the global distribution of potyvirus species, variation in the potyviral coat protein gene, and top aphid vectors of potyviruses. Lastly, we examine how the fundamental understanding of these multi-partite interactions through multi-omics approaches is already contributing to, and can have future implications for, devising effective and sustainable management strategies against aphid- transmitted potyviruses to global agriculture.

  • Eco-Climatic Assessment of the Potential Establishment of Exotic Insects in New Zealand
    Eco-climatic assessment of the potential establishment of exotic insects in New Zealand A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Lora Peacock Lincoln University 2005 Contents Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of PhD Eco-climatic assessment of the potential establishment of exotic insects in New Zealand Lora Peacock To refine our knowledge and to adequately test hypotheses concerning theoretical and applied aspects of invasion biology, successful and unsuccessful invaders should be compared. This study investigated insect establishment patterns by comparing the climatic preferences and biological attributes of two groups of polyphagous insect species that are constantly intercepted at New Zealand's border. One group of species is established in New Zealand (n = 15), the other group comprised species that are not established (n = 21). In the present study the two groups were considered to represent successful and unsuccessful invaders. To provide background for interpretation of results of the comparative analysis, global areas that are climatically analogous to sites in New Zealand were identified by an eco­ climatic assessment model, CLIMEX, to determine possible sources of insect pest invasion. It was found that south east Australia is one of the regions that are climatically very similar to New Zealand. Furthermore, New Zealand shares 90% of its insect pest species with that region. South east Australia has close trade and tourism links with New Zealand and because of its proximity a new incursion in that analogous climate should alert biosecurity authorities in New Zealand.

    ENTOMOLOGIA ÌIELLENICA 8 ( 1990): 41-46 Seasonal Abundance of Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) (Homoptera: Aphididae) and Therioaphis trifola (Monell) (Homoptera: Callaphididae) on Lucerne in Central Greece1 D. P. LYKOURESSIS and CH. P. POLATSIDIS Laboratory of Agricultural Zoology and Entomology, Agricultural University of Athens, 75 lera Odos, GR 118 55 Athens, Greece ABSTRACT Acyrthosiphonpisum (Harris) and Therioaphis trifolii (Monell) were the most abun­ dant aphid species on lucerne at Kopais, Co. Boiotia in central Greece from April 1984 to November 1986. Population fluctuations for A. pisum showed two peaks, the first during April-May and the second in November. Low numbers or zero were found during summer and till mid October as well as during winter and March. The abundance of this species during the year agrees generally with the effects of pre­ vailing temperatures in the region on aphid development and reproduction. T. tri­ fola also showed two population peaks but at different periods. The first occurred in July and the second from mid September to mid October. The first peak was higher than the second. The sharp decline in population densities that occurred in early August and lasted till mid September is not accounted for by adverse climatic conditions, but natural enemies and/or other limiting factors are possibly respon­ sible for that population reduction. Numbers were zero from December till March. while they kept at low levels during the rest of spring and part of June as well as from mid October till the end of November. Introduction species occurring quite frequently on lucerne in Several aphid species are known to attack temperate regions.

Antennae have narrow dark bands at the end of each segment. A pink to red variant has also been reported. Populations occur during the summer and decline when daytime temperatures reach 85º-90º F. Damage appears as leaf yellowing and plant stunting. High population densities may cause wilting and plant death. 1 1 Spotted Alfalfa Aphid Adult: Light tan with six rows of dark spots along the back of the body, about /16 to /8 inch long. This Therioaphis maculata (Buckton) aphid species has the greatest potential to cause loss of alfalfa stands. During the summer and fall, this warm season aphid species can reproduce and increase population levels even when daytime temperatures exceed 85º-90º F. Populations occur in greatest number on leaves and stems in the lower portion of the plant canopy, near the soil surface. Feeding causes a toxic reaction in alfalfa which results in chlorosis, leaf drop, and plant death when high population levels are present. Vein- banding in newly formed leaves emerging from plant terminals is a distinctive symptom of damage.

Mostafa1 INTRODUCTION Alfalfa is an important commodity for dairy and livestock enterprises and is the first in terms of acreage planted in Arizona and second to almond in California. It dominates the cropping systems in the Western US given the importance of the dairy industry and other livestock enterprises. Alfalfa is considered the insectary of the west; providing refuge to wildlife and a variety of beneficial insects, improves soil characteristics, contributes to atmospheric nitrogen fixation through rhizobacteria, traps sediments and takes up nitrate pollutants, mitigates water and air pollution, and provides appealing and pleasing open landscape. Alfalfa also plays an important role in insecticide resistance management by acting as a refuge for susceptible genotypes; e.g., the sweetpotato whitefly Bemisia tabaci Gennadius. Beneficial insects move from alfalfa fields into other crops, where they play crucial roles in pollination and biological control. Broad- spectrum insecticides use in alfalfa affect beneficial insect populations and causes potential long- term effects across the entire landscape. A complex of four alfalfa aphids in the region, pea aphid (PA) Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris), the blue alfalfa aphid (BAA) Acyrthosiphon kondoi L., the spotted alfalfa aphid (SAA), Therioaphis maculatato (Buckton), and the cowpea aphid, (CPA), Aphis craccivora C.L. Koch. The first two aphids are the most common and dangerous in the southwest desert of the U.S. The Aphid populations are highest in the winter and spring months when the first cuttings of the year occurred. These first cuttings are in high demand for the dairy industry. The spotted alfalfa aphid was the first and most devastating alfalfa aphid outbreak on record in 1954.
