Updated Checklist of Food Plants of Macrosiphini (Aphididae: Hemiptera) in India–2

Abstract

The Macrosiphini is one of the 2 tribes of the subfamily Aphidinae (Aphididae: Hemiptera) containing about 2166 species/subspecies assigned to 242 genera. Out of these, only 96 genera and 374 species are recorded from India infesting hundreds of plant species belonging to several families. The food plants of Indian Macrosiphini is catalogued alphabetically (aphid species-wise) in three parts. In this contribution, food plants of 38 genera and 148 species of aphids belonging to the tribe Macrosiphini (Elatobium to Myzus) are catalogued. These aphids feeds on 416 plant species belonging to 98 families. Most suffered families are Asteraceae (62 species) followed by Rosaceae (41 species), Brassicaceae (26 species), Lamiaceae (23 species), Fabaceae (18 species), Pteridaceae (14 species), and Solanaceae (13 species). Among them, several species are crops of agricultural and horticultural importance. The update checklist of food plants of rest of Macrosiphini will be dealt in successive article.

Abstract: The Macrosiphini is one of the 2 tribes of the subfamily Aphidinae (Aphididae: Hemiptera)
containing about 2166 species/subspecies assigned to 242 genera. Out of these, only 96 genera and 374 species
are recorded from India infesting hundreds of plant species belonging to several families. The food plants of
Indian Macrosiphini is catalogued alphabetically (aphid species-wise) in three parts. In this contribution, food
plants of 38 genera and 148 species of aphids belonging to the tribe Macrosiphini (Elatobium to Myzus) are
catalogued. These aphids feeds on 416 plant species belonging to 98 families. Most suffered families are
Asteraceae (62 species) followed by Rosaceae (41 species), Brassicaceae (26 species), Lamiaceae (23 species),
Fabaceae (18 species), Pteridaceae (14 species), and Solanaceae (13 species). Among them, several species are
crops of agricultural and horticultural importance. The update checklist of food plants of rest of Macrosiphini
will be dealt in successive article.

1. INTRODUCTION
The tribe Macrosiphini Wilson, 1910 is one of the two tribes (Aphidini and Macrosiphini) of the
subfamily Aphidinae (Aphididae: Hemiptera) which is the largest subfamily of the aphids containing
2166 species assigned to 242 genera [1]. Several members of the tribe are major agricultural pests
damaging the crops directly by sucking their sap or by transmitting viral diseases. Myzus persicae
(Sulzer) alone transmit about 180 plant viruses [2, 3]. In the most of the literature published earlier,
several errors crept in scientific names of the aphids and plants even in the recent ones. It happens
because such contents become outdated quickly and, due to their perceived comprehensiveness,
readers sometimes overlook newer sources of data [4]. Additionally, the researches on aphid
taxonomy as well as their host plants is continued with the description of new taxa, the modified
status of others, and the publication of other nomenclatural decisions. In the present compilation,
attempts have been made to correct these errors in the scientific names of the aphids following recent
taxonomic literatures [1, 5, 6, 7, 8] and for plants, http://www.ars-grin.gov and http://www.the
plantlist.org (version 1.1). At several places, their synonymies were also mentioned.
2. APHID - FOOD PLANTS RECORD OF MACROSIPHINI
The food plants of Aphidini [9] and first part of Macrosiphini [10] were recently catalogued. The
present paper deals with the second part of Macrosiphini and their food plants in India. Aphid species
marked with § seems to be invalid while species marked with * are wrongly reported for another valid
species. Following is their food plant record:

Myzus (Nectarosiphon) persicae is a highly polyphagous aphid species and is now considered to
consist of distinct phenotypes and genotypes, both holocyclic and anholocyclic, that vary with respect
to their ability to reproduce and food preferences on different host plants. Its diversity of food plant in
India has already been catalogued recently [3] that includes plants belonging to 293 species under 64
plant families. There are 14 plant families where more than 5 species of plants were infested by it in
India, viz. Asteraceae (44 plant species), Solanaceae (37 plant species), Brassicaceae (27 plant
species), Fabaceae (18 plant species), Rosaceae (13 plant species), Malvaceae (11 plant species),
Convolvulaceae (11 plant species), Amaranthaceae (10 plant species), Polygonaceae (8 plant species),
Caryophyllaceae, Plantaginaceae, Poaceae (7 plant species each), Cucurbitaceae (6 plant species), and
Euphorbiaceae (5 plant species).

3. CONCLUSION
Food plants of 38 genera and 148 species of aphids belonging to the tribe Macrosiphini (Elatobium to
Myzus) are catalogued in this contribution. These aphids feed on 416 plant species belonging to 98
families. Asteraceae (62 species) followed by Rosaceae (41 species), Brassicaceae (26 species),
Lamiaceae (23 species), Fabaceae (18 species), Pteridaceae (14 species), and Solanaceae (13 species)
are most suffered plant families. Among them, several species are crops of agricultural and
horticultural importance.
