Abstract

The aphid species Aulacophoroides hoffmanni (Takahashi, 1937) is reported for the first time from South Korea. The field surveys in 2024, we discovered A. hoffmanni severely infesting Wisteria floribunda (Willdenow) at two locations in western South Korea. We provide detailed morphological descriptions and measurements of apterous viviparous females, along with photographs of live and slide-mounted specimens. The severe infestation and damage to W. floribunda suggest that A. hoffmanni could become a significant pest of ornamental Wisteria in Korea.
