Colophina clematis[edit]

  • ... that Colophina clematis was the first species of aphid to have been identified as having a "soldier" caste? Source: "... the discovery of such a caste in the Hemiptera is as recent as 1977. In that year, it was reported from Japan, that the woolly aphid Colophina clematis had a soldier caste."

  • Article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and well referenced. Hook is interesting and supported by reliable sources. QPQ is done. No copyvio detected. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 23:03, 11 February 2018 (UTC)
