Abstract
Neoprociphilus accris (Monell 1882) was originally described in the genus Pemphigus from Acer saccharum Marshall. Pemphigus attenuatns Osborn and Sirrine (1893) was described from Smilax rotundifolia L. In 1912 Patch established the genus Neoprociphilus for aceris. The present paper proves that attenuatus is a synonym of aceris. Fundatrispuriae, the spring migrants, were transferred from sugar maple, Acer saccharum Marshall, the primary host, to greenbriar, Smilax hispida Muhlenberg, a secondary host, where they completed 2 generations before producing sexuperae, which are the return migrants. N. aceris may also remain on Smilax the entire year, overwintering as nymphs in the debris. Descriptions and figures are given of the different morphs. N. aceris has been recorded in the United States from Maine to Florida and west to Utah.
