Abstract

The natural occurrence of fungal pathogens infecting aphids was investigated in Xiamen from 2014 to 2015. Six species of Entomophthorales, Pandora neoaphidis, Pandora nouryi, Entomophthora planchoniana, Conidiobolus obscurus, Neozygites fresenii and Zoophthora radicans were identified. P. neoaphidis and E. planchoniana were dominant in spring and caused epizootics in vegetable field. None Entomophthorales infecting aphids was found in summer.
