Schizolachnus orientalis (Takahashi) View in CoL

Distinguishing features: BL usually more than 1.3 mm, eyes multifaceted. Adults without chitinous ovipositor. Head and prothorax separate, and antenna of at least 4 segments, ANT PT/BASE less than 1. SIPH as large pores on usually pigmented hair-bearing cones. Rostrum less than 1.5× BL; R V with long tip, more than 46 µm long and more than 0.45× R IV. Hairs on ventral side of hind femur long, not peg-like. Hind legs long but less than 2× BL, with at least basal fifth of femur pale. Hind tibia pale, bearing mainly long (less than 20× longer than its width at midpoint) finely pointed hairs. Dorsal abdominal hairs also long and fine, not arising from sclerites ( Blackman and Eastop, 2012).

Material examined: Six samples were collected on Pinus sp. from Kütahya - Akpınar village (27.VII.2012), Afyonkarahisar - Sandıklı (09.X.2012), Uşak - Banaz (23. IV.2013), Kütahya - Gediz (2 samples) (26.IV.2013), and Kütahya - Murat Mountain (26.IV.2013). Yellowish brown and dirty-white wax-covered meal apterae individuals fed in rows along needles .

Distribution: Distributed in China, India, Japan, Taiwan ( Holman, 2009; Blackman and Eastop, 2012).

Tiliaphis shinjii Higuchi

Distinguishing features: BL less than 4 mm, SIPH pale as truncate cones, hardly longer than their basal width. Cauda knobbed, anal plate bilobed (all viviparae alate). Base of forewing infuscated, forewing with a zigzag black band joining distal ends of media, Cu1a and Cu1b. Costal margin of forewing heavily pigmented and RS present. Secondary rhinaria on ANT III transversely elongate, with rims not ciliated. R IV + V and SIPH both longer than HT II. ANT III with 8–16 secondary rhinaria. Hind femur mainly pale. ABD TERG 1–7 with or without dark markings. Mesothoracic dorsal lobes each with a longitudinal dark stripe ( Blackman and Eastop, 2012).

Material examined: Two samples were collected on Tilia sp. from Kütahya - Şaphane (25. VII.2012) and Afyonkarahisar - Sinanpaşa (10. VII.2012). Greenish apterae individuals fed on the undersides of leaves; their colony was mixed with Eucallipterus tiliae .

Distribution: Distributed in Japan, Korea, and eastern Siberia ( Holman, 2009; Blackman and Eastop, 2012).

Tuberculatus ( Tuberculoides ) borealis (Krzywiec)

Distinguishing features: Frontal hairs mostly shorter than and hairs on ANT III less than 0.5× basal diameter of ANT III. Dorsal abdomen with more than 1 pair of spinal processes, usually separated basally, which may be conical or finger-like, or merely low hair-bearing bases that in a few species are only slightly raised above the surface. Marginal hairs also often on processes. Dorsal hairs of immature specimens and embryos without spicules. Spinal hairs on at least ABD TERG 2–3 of embryos only half as long as marginal hairs on same segments or shorter. Embryos with spinal hairs on ABD TERG 1–6 all about 5–8 µm long, thin, with blunt apices; marginal hairs 15– 45 µm long, with those on at least ABD TERG 2–3 not overlapping those of next tergite. First tarsal segments with 5–7 ventral hairs. Forewings not maculate, except in 1 specimen that has dark marginal processes. Tibiae pale or variably pigmented but without a well-defined jet-black basal spot. ABD TERG 1–4 each with a pair of pale spinal processes. R IV + V 0.08–0.12 mm, 0.80–1.05× HT II, with 2 pairs of lateral accessory hairs (and 3–5 ventral ones) ( Blackman and Eastop, 2012) .

Material examined One sample (3 adult apterae individuals) was collected on Quercus sp. from Uşak - Eşme (15.V.2013). Greenish apterae individuals generally fed on the undersides of leaves .

Distribution: Distributed in Europe ( England, Belgium, Denmark, western Russia), east to Iran, and introduced to North America ( Holman, 2009; Blackman and Eastop, 2012; Nafría, 2013).

Among these defined species, 5 species are considered as invasive to Turkey’s aphid fauna. It was shown that the origins of these determined invasive species are Nearctic and Oriental.
