Cannibalism and Predation by Aphids [PDF]
Nature, 1968 APHIDS are usually regarded as feeding exclusively on plant sap which they ingest through stylet-like mouth parts, but they have occasionally been seen to feed on animal food. During feeding on a turgid plant, they do not have to suck but depend chiefly on the pressure of the sap for ingestion.
