2002 Suction Trap Data for Akron, CO

M.D. Koch

The following is a table of the suction trap catches at the Central Great Plains Research Station located four miles east of Akron. Notice there were only 54 aphids caught this year among all species. Seven Russian wheat aphids were captured. For the second year, a flight of English grain aphids came through the end of August. Being in the field would get you covered with them. However, few of these aphids were high enough to be caught by the trap.

Table. Suction trap catches for Akron - 2002.
