Experiments were performed in the laboratory of the Biological Control Department at the Al-Mussaib Technical College during February-July, 2023 for evaluating the efficacy of crude aqueous and alcoholic extracts of flowers and leaves of Bishop’s flower Ammi majus against the black bean aphid, Aphis fabae Scopoli, results revealed that the hot water extract proved superior to cold water extract and hot water extract of flowers was superior compared to leaf extract with mortality of 29.7% nymphs and adults 19.6% respectively.
