Uroleucon?

Uroleucon?
Lenexa, Johnson County, Kansas, USA
July 3, 2019
Found sweep netting my remnant tall grass prairie.

Moved
Moved from Aphids.

Could be.
Are there Asteraceae where you were sweeping? Those siphunchuli kind of look like Macrosiphum, and Uroleucon tend to have more spots along the dorsum but not always.

 
Lots and lots of
Asteraceae in my remnant tall grass prairie where I do the sweeping:-)

 
Hmmmm
Not positive. General look makes me think Uroleucon but the siphunculi look like there is a little bit of a constriction near the apex which is common in Macrosiphum. Aphids are fun!
