Abstract

Abstract Akkaia taiwana Takahashi and Brachysiphoniella montana (van der Goot) are recorded for the first time from Australia, a recent new record of Cinara pilicornis (Hartig) is noted and records of Hysteroneura setariae (Thomas) demonstrate the holocyclic proclivity and rapid spread of this recent immigrant. The alate viviparous female of A. taiwana is described.
