PERIPHYLLUS CALIFORNIENSIS (SHINJI, 1917) AND TINOCALLIS SALTANS (NEVSKY, 1929) (HEMIPTERA: APHIDIDAE), TWO ALIEN APHID SPECIES NEW TO THE FAUNA OF SERBIA

This paper presents two alien species of aphids new to the fauna of Serbia with details on their morphology and biology, with original photographs. Periphyllus californiensis (Shinji, 1917) is an invasive species that belongs to the subfamily Chaitophorinae and was found for the first time in 2021 on Acer palmatum Thunb. Tinocallis saltans (Nevsky, 1929) belongs to the subfamily Calaphidinae and was found on Ulmus pumila L. in 2020 and 2021. Both species were registered in Belgrade. There is now a total of 393 registered species of aphids in Serbia

PRESENCE OF NORTH AMERICAN APHID DREPANAPHIS ACERIFOLIAE (THOMAS, 1878) (HEMIPTERA: APHIDIDAE: DREPANOSIPHINAE) IN SERBIA

The painted maple aphid, Drepanaphis acerifoliae (Thomas, 1878), is present on Acer saccharinum L. (silver maple) in Serbia. It was found for the first time in 2019 in parks in Novi Sad, and in 2020 it was registered in Belgrade. It is a North American species that has been extending its distribution in Europe since 1992. Serbia is the fourth European country in which it has been found, following Italy, Spain and Hungary. Drepanaphis acerifoliae was found to be present on all examined A. saccharinum L. trees where it is usually very numerous. It was not found on A. platanoides L., A. campestre L., A. pseudoplatanus L. or A. negundo L. The morphology of viviparous parthenogenetic females, oviparous females and males is presented, with original drawings and photos

Differences in morphological characteristics between of football pioneer and elementary school pupils

For a large number of sports disciplines generally known morphological structure that most influence the sporty performance, although, no doubt, the coefficients of participation of some morphological dimension in the equation specification changes in development techniques and tactics and modern world achievements in a particular sport. It was determined that the anthropological characteristics, each in its own way, the important task of training in solving with football players (Malacko i Radosav 1985). The aim of this research was to determine differences in the morphological characteristics between of football pioneer and elementary school pupils. In a sample of 196 subjects, the average age of 12:45 ± 0.03 years, there was a comparison of morphological characteristics. The first group consisted of 82 players - Pioneers FC 'Red Star' from Belgrade and the other 114 elementary school pupils from Novi Sad. A sample of five measures for the evaluation of morphological characteristics were: body height, body weight, circumference of chest, waist circumference and volume of the thigh. Comparison of morphological characteristics of young soccer players and elementary school pupils was carried out by using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) and univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA). Analysis of morphological characteristics of young soccer players and elementary school pupils found that there were no statistically significant differences
