“…Some investigations have provided molecular and other evidence for reconstructing the phylogenetic relationships of Hormaphidinae, and the monophyly of Nipponaphidini is supported (Huang et al, 2012;Chen et al, 2014). Others have brought about taxonomical and cecidological knowledge of nipponaphidine aphids (Monzen, 1929(Monzen, , 1934(Monzen, , 1954Takahashi, 1962;Sorin, 1987;Noordam, 1991;Kurosu et al, 1995;Aoki et al, 1999Aoki et al, , 2015Fukatsu et al, 2005).However there have been fewer cecidological studies of the galls on nipponaphidine aphids than of those of the other two hormaphidinae tribes (Chen et al, 2014).…”
