7. Pronotum with about 15 setae, 19–23 µm long, marginals in groups. Patch on tergites VI/VII almost coalescing with sclerotic patch of preceding tergites. In embryo setae from pronotum to tergite VI minute, 6 µm long, peg-like, apices without cusps or indentations. On unknown host. China. .................................................................. A. essigi sp. nov.

– Pronotum with about 9 setae, 8–15 µm long, marginals in single pairs. Patch on tergites VI/VII not coalescing with those of preceding tergites. In embryo setae from pronotum to tergite VI 15 µm long, flabellate. On Dalbergia fer- ruginea. Philippines...................................................................................... A. philippinense Martin & Agarwala, 1994 1

8. Ant. segm. V without secondary sens. On tergite VII a pair of short, sublateral processes 16 µm long. Sclerotic patch on tergites VI/VII almost coalescing with sclerotic patch of proceding tergites. In embryo setae from pronotum to tergite VI 6–8 µm long, flabellate. 2 On Dalbergia hupeana . China. ...................... A. scleroticum Qiao & G.X. Zhang, 2001

– Ant. segm. V with 1–3 secondary sens. Tergite VII without processes. Sclerites of tergites VI/VII not coalescing with those of preceding tergites. In embryo setae from pronotum to tergite VI minute, 4 µm long, peg-like or with incrassate denticulate apices. On Dalbergia spp. West Malaysia and China ( Hong Kong). ................................................................................................................. A. tiomanense Martin & Agarwala, 1994 1 Martin & Agarwala (1994) named two new species as A. tiomanensis and A. philippinensis , respectively. However, the genus Anomalosiphum should be of neuter gender if we follow other generic names of aphids ending in - siphum, such as Eutrichosiphum , with E. manipurense Singh, D. Raychaudhuri & D.N. Raychaudhuri , for example.
