Extract

Ogilvie (1927) lists five aphids of economic importance from Bermuda; namely, Illinoia (Macrosiphum) solanifolii (Ashm.) (=Macrosiphum euphorbiae (Thom.)), Myzus persicae (Sulz.), Aphis lilii Takah., Aphis gossypii Glover, and ? Fullawayella formosana Takah. (possibly Neotoxoptera formosanus (Takah.) or N. violae (Pergande)). Later, in 1928, he states that the species formerly identified as Aphis lilii Takah. was Aphis gossypii Glover and records eighteen additional species from Bermuda. The slides of these specimens presumably are in the British Museum (Natural History) since Mr. F. Laing and Mr. F. V. Theobald identified the aphids.
