Treatment

Metopolophium sonchifoliae Raychaudhuri, L.K. Ghosh & Das 1980 View in CoL = Acyrthosiphon rubi Narzikulov 1957

The description of Metopolophium sonchifoliae , collected on Sonchus sp. and undetermined Rosaceae in Himachal Pradash, India, does not distinguish it from A. rubi , and it was subsequently recorded from a more likely host, Rubus ulmifolius , with an appropriate chromosome number for an Acyrthosiphon , 2n=10 ( Pal & KhudaBukhsh, 1982).
