Taxonomy and Natural History of Cattail Aphids, Rhopalosiphum enigmae (Hemiptera: Aphidomorpha: Aphididae), including a New Synonymy and Notes on Ant and Parasitoid Associates of Rhopalosiphum

We designate a neotype for Rhopalosiphum laconae Taber 1993 and synonymize it with Rhopalosiphum enigmae Hottes and Frison 1931 (Hemiptera: Aphididae) based on geographic, morphological, and molecular evidence. We list 16 new state/province records and provide notes on morphology and natural history for R. enigmae. Additionally, we review and include new ant and parasitoid associates of Rhopalosiphum Koch, 1854 (Hemiptera: Aphididae).

This is a pre-copyedited, author-produced PDF of an article accepted for publication in Insect Systematics and Diversity following peer review.
