Victor, Eastop, F. & Blackman, Roger L., 2005, Some new synonyms in Aphididae (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha), Zootaxa 1089, pp. 1-36 : 9

Capitophorus tanensis Zhang, Chen, Zhong & Li , in Zhang 1999 = Capitophorus rhamnoides Zhang, Chen, Zhong & Li , in Zhang 1999

Paratypes of the two species, both described from Hippophae rhamnoides in north­west China, have been compared. C. tanensis (collected 30.ix.80) seems to be the autumn form of C. rhamnoides (collected 11.vii.86), which has page priority.
