@MichaelMulvaney looks very similar, what are the distinguishing features?

Having a specimen with wings and wing venation would have proved useful - also notes on the plant which it is on can also help - but I am not an aphid expert so maybe there are more significant features

@MichaelMulvaney unfortunately I didn’t get any with wings, it might remain a mystery.
