Information on the presence and species of aphids on corn plants in Lamongan Regency has never been reported. The purpose of this study was to determine the species of aphids that attack corn plants in Lamongan Regency. Methods: This research was conducted from May 2024 to July 2024 in 9 maize fields in Lamongan Regency. The method used in this study was the survey method.
