DESCRIPTION OF THE IMMATURE STAGES OF LEUCOPIS SP. NR. ALBIPUNCTA (DIPTERA: CHAMAEMYIIDAE) AND THEIR ROLE AS PREDATORS OF THE APPLE APHID, APHIS POMI (HOMOPTERA: APHIDIDAE)
Keyword(s):
AbstractThe role of Leucopis sp. nr. albipuncta larvae in controlling outbreaks of the apple aphid, Aphis pomi De Geer, was studied in five New Hampshire orchards. There was significant correlation of larval density with changes in the density of apple aphid populations, and larvae were widely distributed throughout the apple growing region of the state. The egg, three larval instars, and puparium are described and illustrated.
