Dynamics of Aphididae Populations on Hardangervidda

  • Chapter
Fennoscandian Tundra Ecosystems

Part of the book series: Ecological Studies ((ECOLSTUD,volume 17))

Abstract

The aphids collected with the quick trap method (Kauri et al, 1969; Solhøy, 1972) at the Stigstuv IBP alpine tundra dry and wet meadow sites described by Sonesson et al. (1975) comprise 8 species. The population of the wet meadow is sparse, and only material from the dry meadow is considered in the ecological discussion.
