Abstract
In 2017, damages caused by aphids were observed for the first time on Cedar trees in Bulgaria. In 2020, apterae specimens of Cinara (Cinara) cedri cedri were collected and identified on Cedrus atlantica and C. deodara in seven localities both on young trees in forest nurseries and on old trees in plantations or in green urban systems. The pest appears to be a serious threat to the health status and decorative characteristics of Cedar trees. In case of high population density, the needles are covered with large honeydew secretions and sooty mold.
