Woolly Aphid

Found on the stems, leaves, and roots of various trees and shrubs, particularly fruit trees like apples and elms.

Feeds on plant sap using piercing-sucking mouthparts, excreting sticky honeydew.

Secretes a white, waxy, wool-like coating for protection and often forms dense colonies on host plants.

Can cause leaf curling, stunted growth, and branch galls, posing a threat to agricultural orchards and ornamental plants.
