Abstract In a previous paper, one hundred thirty aphid taxa were recorded in Tunisia including 103 species. In this present work, we give additional records from the Cap Bon region in the North East of Tunisia. Eighty-one new species and 8 taxa were added for the first time. These records are based on daily suction trap and weekly yellow trap catches for 14 years from 2005 to 2018. This addition brings the number of aphids from Tunisia to 219 taxa. The aphid species (86) and subspecies (3) from the Aphididae family were ranged in 7 subfamilies: Aphidinae (64 species and 28 genera), Eriosomatinae (9 species and 6 genera), Chaitophorinae (2 species and 2 genera), Greenideinae (2 species and 1 genus), Lachninae (4 species and 3 genera), Calaphinae (6 species and 5 genera), Saltuaphidinae (2 species and 1 genera). All specimens are conserved in microscopic slides in the Plant Protection Laboratory of INRAT. Furthermore, among this list, other potential aphids as virus vectors were identified in this region.
