Ants, Aphids, And Fuzzy Thing
Sand Springs, Osage County, Oklahoma, USA
May 21, 2008
Size: 1mm (1/32") aphids
These aphids were being tended by ants. Then there was the white fuzzy critter. Also, in pic five and six you can see what I believe is an immature white fuzzy thing.
Please help with ID for ants, aphids, and white fuzzy thing.

Moved from Mealybug Destroyer.

The photo doesn't show any of the features that can distinguish between Cryptolaemus montrouzieri and other larvae of Tribe Scymnini. It might really be the mealybug destroyer, but it's not possible to say for sure.
