This study presents the up-to-date list of the aphid species (family Aphididae, 63 species and one subspecies of 28 genera altogether) reported from Trakai district (Lithuania). It is based on the reference data (23 species altogether, 1927–1966) and original material collected in 1986 and 2007, with the comments on their distribution. Dysaphis leefmansi and Uroleucon cichorii subsp. leontodontis are reported for the first time in the aphid fauna of Lithuania, Aphis valerianae for the first time in the Palaearctic region. Consequently, the list of aphid species in Lithuania has grown to 336 species.
