    Pale-streaked Honeysuckle Aphid

    Illinoia crystleae is a species of aphid in the family Aphididae, commonly known as the Pale-streaked Honeysuckle Aphid. It belongs to the genus Illinoia, which comprises aphids primarily associated with woody shrubs and trees. The species was described by Smith and Knowlton in 1939. Very few observations of this species have been documented, with only three records in iNaturalist, indicating it is either genuinely rare, underreported, or restricted to specific host plants or geographic regions.

  • Illinoia maxima

    Green-striped Thimbleberry Aphid

    Illinoia maxima is a species of aphid in the family Aphididae, commonly known as the Green-striped Thimbleberry Aphid. It belongs to the genus Illinoia, a group of aphids associated with various host plants. Information about this species is limited, with only seven observations documented on iNaturalist. The specific epithet 'maxima' suggests relatively large size compared to congeners, though this has not been formally verified.
