Migration of Lettuce Aphid in Australia [9]

Currant-Lettuce aphid (CLA), Nasonovia ribis-nigri, migrated from New Zealand to Tasmania on low-level jet streams in January 2004 and rapidly spread throughout Australia. Like many small winged insects, aphids migrate predominantly via wind and human activity. The distance of their dispersal is influenced by many factors including temperature and weather events.
