About: Ecology of Aphidophaga 16 will be held in Bologna, Italy, September 8-12, 2025. The mission of Aphidophaga has been to connect entomologists studying the ecology of aphid-feeding arthropods strategies, and practical applications. Aphidophaga is a meeting focused on the ecology of arthropods that have evolved to exploit aphids as food, either as a primary resource, or as one component of a generalized diet. We hope to be able to offer travel grants to assist young scientists and students with travel costs to attend the meeting. These will be available pending approval from the International Organization of Biological Control.
