Dorsum of body weakly pigmented, aphids on slide appearing pale to the naked eye. Dorsal body integument mostly smooth or weakly sculptured..............................................................................................................................................2 – Much of dorsum of body pale brown to dark brown, at least on sides of abdomen.......................................................4 2. Paired processes of tergite VII (minus setae) about 0.9 times as long as processes of tergite VIII; frontal setae about 34 µm long, pedunculate flabellate; dorsum of body almost smooth. In embryo dorsal body setae flabellate, about 15 µm long......................................................................................................A. philippinenseMartin & Agarwala, 1994 – Paired processes of tergite VII 0.50–0.75 times as long as processes of tergite VIII; frontal setae about 23 µm long or shorter, pedunculate or sessile flabellate; dorsum of body smooth or variolose. In embryo dorsal body setae short flabellate or peg-like, 4–6 µm long. ....................................................................................................................................3 3.
