Morphological Features

Adult body length 2.66–4.47 mm, body width 0.60–0.77 mm. This species is a social aphid with distinct soldier and normal nymph castes. Soldiers are first-instar nymphs with enlarged forelegs, exhibiting rapid post-embryonic development of morphological differences, particularly in foreleg size. Normal first-instar nymphs have a stadium about twice that of second instars, while soldier first-instar nymphs have a much longer stadium. Soldiers display defensive behavior, attacking predators such as syrphid fly larvae. No further external morphological details (e.g., head, antennae, coloration, wings) are available from the supplied evidence.
