Abstract

This information on the Russian wheat aphid Diuraphis noxia (Hemiptera, Sternorrhyncha, Aphididae) in those regions of Algeria wherecereals are grown is based on a nineteen year study. This revealed that this aphid is widely distributed in the high plateaus and interior plainswith semi-arid climates. The mummies of this aphid found among its colonies were collected and 4 parasitoids (Hymenoptera, Braconidae,Aphidiinae) where identified. These were Diaeretiella rapae (M’Intosh), Aphidius matricariae (Haliday), Aphidius rhopalosiphi (Destefani) andLysiphlebus testaceipes (Cresson), with D. rapae the most abundant. Moreover, this study also indicates that the cyclical appearance of thisaphid is determined by the intensity of precipitation during winter and spring.

阿尔及利亚小麦蚜虫Diuraphis noxia (Mordvilko, 1913)(半翅目，蚜虫科)的分布、寄生蜂和周期形态

关于阿尔及利亚谷物种植区俄罗斯小麦蚜虫Diuraphis noxia(半翅目，小麦蚜，蚜虫科)的资料是基于一项为期19年的研究。这表明该蚜虫广泛分布于高原和半干旱气候的内陆平原。收集了该蚜虫在其群落中发现的干尸，鉴定出4种寄生蜂(膜翅目，小蜂科，蚜蝇科)。其中以油菜Diaeretiella rapae (M’intosh)、蚜蚜(Haliday)、蚜蚜(Destefani)和蚜蚜(Cresson)数量最多。此外，本研究还表明，冬春两季的降水强度决定了蚜虫的周期性出现。
