Sappaphis montana Zhang, Chen, Zhong & Li 1999 = Sappaphis sinipiricola Zhang 1980

S. sinipiricola was described from apt. and al. collected on Pyrus in Henan Province, China, in May, and subsequently recorded from Artemisia ( Zhang et al. 1999) . Paratypes of S. montana have been studied and appear to be gynoparae of this species. (Two other new species in the same publication, S. albinae described from early­summer exules on Artemisia , and S. angelicograstis described from late­summer exules and gynoparae, may also be seasonal forms of S. sinipiricola , which is itself very close to S. piri .)
