Abstract


Two species of Uroleucon (Hem., Aphididae, Aphidinae, Macrosiphini) are described from specimens collected on South American indigenous composites in the Aysén del General Carlos Ibáñez del Campo region (Chile), which is located between parallels 43º 38’ 22” S and 49º 09’ 50” S. Uroleucon chiliotrichi sp. n. is described from apterous viviparous females found on Chiliotrichum diffusum. Uroleucon amigoi sp. n. is described from apterous and alate viviparous females and oviparous females found on Adenocaulon chilense. Differences between these and morphologically similar South American species are presented.
