They are nymphs. I prefer it when people link members of the same colony since different morphs are easier to ID, aphids are generally an exception to the rule of one individual per image, just makes it easier. Nymphs are often impossible to ID without an associated adult.

About linking
Linking is good but not as same individual if they are not. The better alternative is to link them using [thumb#] where # is the number of the image, for instance 1334436.
These are not necessarily nymphs. Aphids produce winged and wingless individuals depending on circumstances.
