Abstract
A number of yellow Moericke water traps were placed in Cotton, tomato, tobacco, pot­ato, squash and maize fields in Boiotia, Thessalia, Macedonia and Aitoloakarnania from June to the end of 1992. From a limited number of trip captures examined, fifty nive aphid species were identified of which twenty species arc new records for Greece.
