Moved from Blackcurrant--Sowthistle Aphid.

Sorry, misread something and changed my mind once I realized that. Does look like H. lactucae though.

Hyperomyzus
Myzus persicae usually has only slightly swollen siphunculi, plus 7-16 sensoria (sense organs) on the antennae in a row. This specimen has fairly distinct swelling on the siphunculi and numerous sensoria scattered all over the antennae, which are both characters of Hyperomyzus.
