The current survey guidelines recommend that during the course of the field season, multi-funnel traps be checked every 2 to 3 wk and prism traps only every 6 wk (USDA APHIS PPQ 2017).

His involvement with USDA APHIS started in 1997, first in Alabama as a wildlife specialist and then in Mississippi as a district supervisor.

Karkanis et al., (2011) reported Disaphis lappe and Aphis fabae damaging Silybum marianum, a medicinal weed crop in Iran and Greece.
