aphids on Prunus serotina - Hyalopterus pruni
Barton, Orleans County, Vermont, USA
June 21, 2016
We have many black cherry trees and for the first time we have aphids on one (so far) tree. On nearly every leaf of the small tree. The nearby huge tree is aphid free. We even found a Clytus ruricola beetle settled in and eating these mites inside the fold of a leaf (these aphids seem to fold the leaves).
Any clues as to what they are? Thank you!
