            </p>
            <p>Morphology. Apterae BL 0.766μm, red- brown, ochreous, with legs and antenna slightly paler, ranging 465μm, 0,6 times as long as the BL. PT/B = 1,02; RIV+ V /HT2 = 1.2–1.5. The dorsum presents a reticulate pattern. The cauda is covered by the abdominal tergite VIII. Siphunculi narrowly conical, slightly dorsoventrally flattened, tapering towards a rounded apex presenting a small subapical aperture.</p>
            <p> Distribution and ecology. Holarctic species, in Europe it is known mainly from the North (UK, Scandinavia, Baltic states, Russia) but also from the Czech Republic and Poland. The classification of  M. escherichi concerning its association with mosses is under debate among some authors. Blackman &amp; Eastop (2024) propose that  M. escherichi is holocyclic on mosses, representing latter generations of  Muscaphis drepanosiphoides (Börner, 1939) that feeds from  Sorbus as the primary host, defining them potentially synonymous. The transfer experiments of  M. drepanosiphoides from  Sorbus to  Plagiothecium laetum Schimp. performed by Stekolshchikov &amp; Shaposhnikov (1993) would support the synonymy. However, this present work relies on the studies of Albrecht (2015), where  M. escherichi and  M. drenaposiphoides are considered different species regarding their morphological distinctiveness, mainly the siphunculi, which characteristics are generally quite constant throughout the parthenogenetic morphs. In the  Sorbus -feeding aphids, fundatrix and alatae have siphunculi which are long, black and truncate, with a large terminal aperture (Albrecht 2015). Molecular analyses are needed to definitively resolve this taxonomic uncertainty.  Muscaphis escherichi has been recorded from many species of moss, including  Brachythecium salebrosum ,  Calliergonella cuspidata (Hedw.) Loeske ,  Cirriphyllum piliferum (Hedw.) Grout ,  Dicranum scoparium Hedw. ,  Hylocomium splendens (Hedw.) Schimp. ,  Hypnum cupressiforme ,  Kindbergia praelonga (Hedw.) Ochyra ,  Mnium hornum Hedw. ,  Pleurozium schreberi (Willd. ex Brid.) Mitt. ,  Pohlia filum (Schimp.) Mårtensson ,  Pseudoscleropodium purum (Hedw.) M.Fleisch. Plagiomnium affine (Blandow ex Funck) T.J.Kop. ,  Plagiomnium rostratum (Schrad.) T.J.Kop. ,  Plagiomnium undulatum (Hedw.) T.J.Kop. ,  Plagiothecium laetum ,  Polytrichum formosum Hedw. ,  Ptilium crista-castrensis (Hedw.) De Not. ,  Rhodobryum roseum (Hedw.) Limpr. ,  Rhytidiadelphus loreus (Hedw.) Warnst. ,  Rhytidiadelphus squarrosus (Hedw.) Warnst. , Sciuro-hypnum oedipodium (Mitt.)

            <p> It was collected together with  Pseudacaudella rubida (Börner, 1939) from the same colonies of their new host plant, the rare  Palustriella commutata . However, only  M. eschirichi was found in October 2022, while only  P. rubida was found in March 2024. Both species were scarce, a few viviparous apterous females and larvae were found in the samples. Ants were not present in the sample, but a rich community of other invertebrates (Fig. 10, Table 1); the samples were particularly rich in  Collembola while relatively few mites were present. </p>

            <p>Morphology. Apterae BL 758μm, pale brown or dark olive- green. Siphunculi reddish brown, cylindrical; apex truncate without constriction or flange; aperture terminal.</p>
            <p> Distribution and ecology. Recorded from several countries in Europe (Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, Poland, Switzerland, UK) and in the USA. The life cycle is uncertain: alate males have been collected in Germany and Poland (Wilkaniec &amp; Borowiak-Sobkowiak 2009) and it is possibly heteroecious holocyclic with an unknown primary host, but collection of active stages in the cold season (Müller 1973 - under the name  M. stammeri Börner, 1952 ) indicates that it can be partially anholocyclic.  Muscaphis musci has been recorded from the mosses  Atrichum undulatum (Hedw.) P.Beauv. ,  Amblystegium serpens (Hedw.) Schimp. ,  Barbula Hedw. sp. ,  Brachytheciastrum velutinum (Hedw.) Ignatov &amp; Huttunen ,  Brachythecium rutabulum (Hedw.) Schimp. ,  Bryum Hedw. sp. ,  Calliergon (Sull.) Kindb. sp. ,  Calliergonella cuspidata, Hyocomium armoricum (Brid.) Wijk &amp; Margad.

Schimp.,  Rhytidiadelphus squarrosus, Tortula muralis Hedw. (compiled from Albrecht 2015 and Blackman &amp; Eastop 2024, nomenclature updated according to Hodgetts et al. 2020). </p>
            <p> It was collected together with  Pseudacaudella rubida from the same colonies of their new host plant,  Hypnum cupressiforme . The two species were coexisting in samples taken both from ground level of the bark, and from one meter high on the stem. Several specimens, both adults and larvae were found despite the winter season. Ants were not found in the samples, and the community was poor both in species and specimens (Table 1); however, several predators were present, e.g., juvenile spiders and pseudoscorpions. </p>

            <p>Morphology. Apterae are shining olive green to brown with rusty patches at the bases of siphunculi; BL 730,29μm. The dorsum of the adult is mostly smooth, sclerotic, and rather shiny, but nodulose on the margins. Antennal tubercles are undeveloped. The head cuticle is almost smooth dorsally, with nodules on the ventral side. The antennae are 0.9 times the body length, with a terminal process 2,38 times as long as the base of antennal segment VI. There are no secondary rhinaria. The hairs on antennal segment III are about 0,36 times the basal diameter of that segment. The rostrum reaches the hind coxae, and the apical rostral segment is 1,44 times the second hind tarsal segment. The siphunculi are cylindrical with a subapical constriction under the strongly developed flange. The siphunculi are 3,22 times the caudal length. The cauda has a broad rounded basal part, and a narrow tongue-shaped apical part, with 4 hairs.</p>
            <p> Distribution and ecology. Recorded throughout in Europe, known also from Central Asia (Kazakhstan), Northern Africa (Morocco), the Americas (Brazil, Panama, USA), and alatae have been collected in New Zealand. Ubiquitous species, occur on a wide range of mosses found from dry rocks to submerged in forest swamps. Not ant-attended and monoecious, though possible host alternation from  Sorbus was reported from Ukraine (Bozhko 1976 - under the name  Staegeriella sp. ). Reported from all year, during the cold season as hibernating larvae. It seems anholocyclic, with a specialized overwintering second instar larva having a dark sclerotic cuticle and a wax coat (Müller 1973, Tinguely 1993). Our samples from January contained both adults and unmodified larvae, indicating that the species do not went on hibernating during the extremely warm winter of 2024, or due to dwelling on a warm, southern exposed hill.  Pseudacaudella rubida has been recorded from the mosses  Brachythecium albicans (Hedw.) Schimp. ,  Calliergon cordifolium (Hedw.) Kindb. ,  Calliergonella cuspidata, Climacium dendroides (Hedw.) F.Weber &amp; D.Mohr,  Dicranum scoparium ,  Hylocomium splendens ,  Mnium hornum ,  Pleurozium schreberi ,  Polytrichum commune ,  Polytrichum formosum ,  Pseudoscleropodium purum ,  Racomitrium lanuginosum (Hedw.)

Schimp. (compiled from Albrecht 2015 and Blackman &amp; Eastop 2024, nomenclature updated according to Hodgetts et al. 2020). </p>
            <p> As written above, it was coexisting with  Muscaphis musci in  Hypnum cupressiforme colonies and both adults and larvae were present in the samples from January 2024. On the contrary, it was found as the only aphid in a  Palustriella commutata colony in March 2024, while the same colony was inhabited only by  M. eischirichi in October 2022. </p>
