Macrosiphum sileneum Theobald 1913 View in CoL = Macrosiphum stellariae Theobald 1913

Theobald described Macrosiphum sileneum from Silene in the same paper as M. stellariae from Stellaria , the latter having page priority. Synonymy has long been suspected ( Börner, 1952; Heie, 1994). Material under both names in the Theobald collection, and samples subsequently collected from both plant genera, showed no consistent differences and clustered together in a multivariate analysis by Watson (1982)..
