Abstract

An annotated list is given of 48 species of aphids collected 1974–1977 at Churchill, Manitoba. Four new species are described: Acyrthosiphon churchillense new species from Oxytropis hudsonica (Greene) Fern, Aphis madderae new species from Taraxacum lacerum Greene, Capitophorus hudsonicus new species (collected by sweeping), and Macrosiphum subarcticum new species from Epilobium angustifolium L. It is suggested that Macrosiphum valerianae (Clarke) be declared a nomen dubium.
