. These aphids have the following features: (1) short 5-segmented antennae with a short processus terminalis that is significantly shorter than the base of antennal segment V; (2) wrinkled cuticle; (3) long siphunculi broadest at base, narrow at middle and weakly expanded in apical part, with the apices skewed inside, without flange; (4) long usually paired medial processes on all thoracic and abdominal tergites, and long marginal processes on all thoracic segments and I IV abdominal segments; (5) finger like processes on antennal tubercles that are much higher than the height of a median tubercle. All these characteristics are expressed to some extent in the species of

has long marginal processes although these disappear in apterous viviparous females of the following generations. The number of processes on the abdominal tergites decreases from three in the fundatrix, to one in apterous viviparous females of the following generations, and to almost complete disappearance in oviparous females. Thus there is a trend to reduce the number of projections on the abdomen.
