Abstract A table is given showing 5 species of Entomophthoraceae (of which some had several strains) that were isolated from aphids in Rio Grande do Sul and of which 3 are new to Brazil and 1 new to aphid hosts in that country; the 10 aphid species affected by them, of which nearly all were economic pests; and the 7 species of food-plants infested by these aphids, of which lucerne, wheat, oats, Lolium perenne and box (Buxus sempervirens) were of economic interest. The cereal aphids Metopolophium dirhodum (Wlk.) and Sitobion avenae (F.) were infected by 4 of the 5 fungus species.
