Abstract | A black Aphis sp. on Tropaeolum can be separated, morphologically, from A. fabae Scop. In controlled experiments this aphid, both winged and wingless forms, actively selects Vicia faba as a host plant, settles to feed and reproduce, but always dies prematurely. Offspring also soon die. The aphid is unable to take up plant sap from beans. The behaviour associated with host plant selection is not adjusted to its feeding requirements. |
