Lettuce aphid

Lettuce aphid has several color forms, ranging from green to orange to pink. Adult winged and wingless lettuce aphids have black markings on the joints of the legs and antennae. Some of the wingless aphids have many black markings on the top of the abdomen as well. The winged adults are browner in color than the wingless forms, but also have various black markings.
Lettuce aphid is a relatively new pest of lettuce in California. It can be distinguished from green peach aphid by the fact that lettuce aphid does not have strongly converging antennal tubercles.
