Aphis saniculae
Aphis saniculae is a species of aphid in the family Aphididae, first described by Williams in 1911. The specific epithet 'saniculae' suggests an association with plants in the genus Sanicula (Apiaceae). Like other members of the genus Aphis, it is presumed to be a phloem-feeding insect. Very few observations of this species have been recorded, with only 7 documented observations on iNaturalist, indicating it is either rare, underreported, or restricted in distribution.
