red head aphid? - Pterocomma sanguiceps
Clallam County, Washington, USA
October 18, 2009
Size: appx. 0.5 cm
Many of these were buched together on a willow tree in my yard. A few were walking around but the cool temperature seemed to keep most of them still. Only 3 - 5 mm in size, that is a willow tree leaf it is crawling on. Thanks for your help!
