A guide to the winged aphids of Costa Rica
(2003-05)
This guide is a compilation of limited morphological and biological information on the winged morphs of 60 species of aphids that have been collected in Costa Rica. It should not be viewed as a definitive taxnomic treatise ...
Aphididae (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha) from Costa Rica, with new records for Central America
(2010-06-21)
