The simplification of aphid terminology

BLACKMAN R.L.
N/A

A report is provided of a workshop at 4th International Symposium on Aphids, where the decision was reached to recommend a major simplification of the terms used in papers on aphid biology, in order to make aphid work more accessible. It was concluded that most of the specialist terms usually applied to aphid morphs anf life cycles could and should be avoided in papers that are intended to be of general interest to other biologists. Specific recommenadations are made for their replacement by terms that are simpler and more widely understood.

Keywords: Aphid morphs, polymorphism, life cycles, terminology
