on each side of the body ; the feelers are black towards the tips, 
and much longer than the body: the eyes and the tip of the 
mouth are black: the nectaries have black tips, and are nearly 
one-fourth of the length of the body: the legs are pale yellow ; 
the knees and the tips of the shanks are black. 
The winged male. This appears in the autumn and pairs with 
the oviparous female at the end of October : it is deep black : the 
abdomen is sometimes dark red with a black line along the mid- 
dle; it has a white bloom beneath: the feelers are slender, and 
much longer than the body; the fourth joint is much shorter 
than the third, but more than half its length ; the fifth is shorter 
than the fourth; the sixth is about half the length of the fifth ; 
the seventh is a little longer than the fourth: the nectaries are 
nearly one-fifth of the length of the body: the thighs towards 
the base, and the shanks except their tips are dark yellow: the 
wings are very much longer than the body; the wing-ribs, the 
rib-veins and the wing-brands are pale brown; the second vein 
diverges rather more from the first than it does from the third ; 
the first fork of the latter vein begins a little after one-third, and 
the second beyond two-thirds of its length; the fourth vein 
is much curved near its base, but nearly straight towards its tip : 
the angle whence it springs is slight. 
It sometimes couples also with the oviparous female of Aphis 
Mali. i 
Both these species very abundant in the autumn of 1846, but 
very scarce during that season in 1847. 
Length of the body 3-1 line ; of the wings 24-3 lines.

The viviparous wingless female. This appears on the spindle- 
tree (Huonymus europeus) in April: it is black, oval, convex, 
short, broad, very plump, and covered with a white bloom: the 
feelers are white, and about one-third of the length of the body ; 
their tips are black: the nectaries are about one-fifteenth of the 
length of the body: the legs are rather ‘short, the shanks are 
white with black tips; the fore-shanks are dirty white with brown 
tips. The young one is like its mother, but more flat and 
linear, less intensely black, and without bloom ; its limbs are 
blackish green, and at the moment of its birth its body is dark 
green. The front of the head is slightly convex, and not notched ; 
the first and the second joints of the feelers are not angular ; the
