First Record of Elatobium abietinum (Walker, 1849) (Hemiptera, Sternoryncha, Aphididae) on Picea spp. in Bulgaria
Apstrakt
Elatobium abietinum is reported for the first time in Bulgaria. The aphid was found in the spring of 2014 in three private properties near Sofia (Bistritsa, Pancharevo and Dragalevtsi) on Norway spruce, Picea abies (L.) H. KARST. and Colorado spruce, Picea pungens ENGLEM. Both Picea species are often used in gardens and landscaping. The damage caused by the aphid leads to the full loss of needles from infested branches. In this paper, a brief description of the morphology of E. abietinum is given, accompanied with data on its distribution and biological characteristics. Previous studies in several countries indicated that the aphid is a hazard for both large-sized spruce trees in landscape situations and small-sized trees in nurseries.
