In independently recognising a new east Asian genus of aphids feeding on roots and stembases of Compositae, Zhang
et al.
(in
Zhang 1999
) and
Pashtshenko (2000)
overlooked a short paper on a new genus and species on
Saussurea nigrescens
in
China
(
Yuan
& Xue 1992
), the description of which agrees closely with that of an aphid described from a plant of the same genus in east
Russia
(Amur Province).
Pashtshenko (2000)
provided a key to five species of this new genus.
