This review of the taxonomy does not include many of the lesser notes of an economic nature, which give Hyalopterus arundinis (Fabr.) priority over H. pruni (Fabr.) and vice versa. 1737. De Réamur(51)3 recorded certain observations on an aphid on plum trees in France. This aphid was coated with a white powder. There can be little doubt but that he was dealing with Hyalopterus pruni (Geoff.). 1762. Aphis pruni Geoffroy. This species was described in an anonymous publication, known to be the work of E. L. Geoffroy. This was the earliest use of a binomial name for this species, according to Hottes.(31)
