Aphidinae is an aphid subfamily in the family Aphididae.. Many species of aphids spread potyviruses and most are from the subfamily Aphidinae (genera Macrosiphum and Myzus).Most have alternative hosts, the primary host plant is usually a tree, and the secondary one is herbaceous.
The Aphidiinae are subdivided into several tribes, the Ephedrini, Praini, Trioxini, Aclitini, and Aphidiini, with the latter subdivided into three subtribes. [2] Most species reside in the Aphidiini. The Praini's loss of internal pupation is likely to be secondary. [3] There are ~400 spp. in ~50 genera worldwide.

The binomial name often reflects limited knowledge or hearsay about a species at the time it was named. For instance Pan troglodytes, the chimpanzee, and Troglodytes troglodytes, the wren, are not necessarily cave-dwellers. Sometimes a genus name or specific descriptor is simply the Latin or Greek name for the animal (e.g. Canis is Latin for ...
Unusual names have caused issues for scientists explaining genetic diseases to lay-people, such as when an individual is affected by a gene with an offensive or insensitive name. [13] This has particularly been noted in patients with a defect in the sonic hedgehog gene pathway and the disease formerly named CATCH22 for "cardiac anomaly, T-cell ...

Over 1.5 million living animal species have been described—of which around 1 million are insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million in total. Animals range in size from 8.5 millionths of a metre to 33.6 metres (110 ft) long and have complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs .
Pauesia is a genus of parasitoid wasps in the subfamily Aphidiinae. The species in the genus use the conifer aphids (genus Cinara) as their host. Pauesia anatolica is a parasitoid of the cedar aphid Cinara cedri, [1] and Pauesia grossa is a parasitoid of the black stem aphid (Cinara confinis). [2]
