Cavariella Del Guercio (Hemiptera, Aphidinae, Macrosiphini) in China, with a new species, new synonymies, and first country records [PDF]
The genus Cavariella is distinguished from other Macrosiphini genera (Aphididae, Aphidinae) because it has a supra-caudal process on abdominal tergite VIII which possesses two setae distally.

The preference-performance relationship as a means of classifying parasitoids according to their specialization degree. [PDF]
Abstract Host range in parasitoids could be described by the preference–performance hypothesis (PPH) where preference is defined as host acceptance and performance is defined as the sum of all species on which parasitoid offspring can complete their life cycle.

Integrative approach to the systematics of the endemic Svalbard aphid specis Macrosiphum calvulum (Hemiptera, Aphididae) using molecular morphological and reproductive system analysis [PDF]
Aphids in the Svalbard archipelago are limited to a few highly specialized species adapted to extreme Arctic conditions. Among them, the endemic species historically identified as Sitobion (Metobion) calvulum remains poorly studied.

'Drifting' Buchnera genomes track the microevolutionary trajectories of their aphid hosts. [PDF]
Thia et al. examine intraspecific genomic covariation between the aphid pest, Myzus persicae, and its primary endosymbiont, Buchnera aphidicola. They show that there are strong signals of correlated genomic differentiation between insects hosts and their endosymbionts across 43 different clonal lines. However, patterns of genomic covariation are likely
