Abstract

Apterous adult morphs of eriosomatine aphids associated with moss (Bryophyta) and/or roots of conifer (Pinaceae) or willow (Salix Linnaeus (Salicaceae)) in forests of the North American Pacific Northwest including Alaska are described, illustrated, and keyed. In total, seven species (Clydesmithia canadensis Danielsson, Melaphis rhois (Fitch) (moss only feeder), Pachypappa rosettei (Maxson), Pachypappa sacculi (Gillette), Prociphilus americanus (Walker) (fir root only feeder), Prociphilus xylostei (De Geer), and Thecabius populimonilis (Riley)) are characterised from their secondary host habitats. Secondary host forms of C. canadensis and T. populimonilis are described for the first time. The morphotypes from the secondary hosts were confirmed through deoxyribonucleic acid sequence matching with those from the primary hosts.

Résumé

Nous décrivons et illustrons les morphes adultes aptères de pucerons ériosomatinés associés aux mousses (Bryophyta) et(ou) aux racines de conifères (Pinaceae) et de saules (Salix Linnaeus (Salicaceae)) dans les forêts du Nord-Ouest Pacifique américain y compris l'Alaska et nous fournissons des clés pour leur identification. En tout, sept espèces (Clydesmithia canadensis Danielsson, Melaphis rhois (Fitch) (se nourrissant seulement de mousses), Pachypappa rosettei (Maxson), Pachypappa sacculi (Gillette), Prociphilus americanus (Walker) (se nourrissant seulement de racines de sapin), Prociphilus xylostei (De Geer) et Thecabius populimonilis (Riley)) sont caractérisées d'après les habitats de leur hôte secondaire. Nous décrivons les formes des hôtes secondaires de C. canadensis et de T. populimonilis pour la première fois. Les morphotypes des hôtes secondaires ont pu être confirmés par comparaison de leurs séquences d'ADN avec celles des morphotypes des hôtes primaires.
