Description
3. Aphis nerii Boyer de Fonscolombe, Soc. Ent. France, Ann. 10: 167, 1841.
The milkweed aphis was found once at Piti. A colony occurred on the common milkweed (Asclepias curassavica) at the Agricultural School Firm. Another colony was found on the same plant at Fadian.
A large green aphid was found on the large marsh reed (Trichoon ro:rburghii) on two occasions, once at Inarajan and again at Piti, but I failed to preserve any for identification.
Aphis sacchari was not observed at any time on sugar cane.
Fullaway reported in 1911 an aphid on banana resembling Pentalonia nigronervosa, a species known on banana in Hawaii.
