N2  - Information about the seasonal occurrence and peaks of activity of winged aphid species was obtained by trapping during a period of 15 months at three locations within 45 miles of Melbourne. Most species were caught in greatest numbers during either the spring or the autumn. Species such as Myzus persicae (Sulz.) and Brevicoryne brassicae (L.) were caught throughout the year. Cavariella aegopodii (Scop.) was trapped only in cool weather, while Aploneura lentisci (Pass.) was caught only in warm weather. Water-filled yellow trays were very efficient for trapping many species, but a wind-vane sticky trap caught more of some species, including the grass-feeding aphids, than did the yellow tray.
