Members of the genus Tuberolachnus are impressive for their size compared to most aphids, with some being referred to as giant aphids. A unique feature of these creatures is their significant role in ecosystems, influencing plant sap flow and subsequently the distribution of nutrients, not only affecting plant health but also shaping the surrounding biodiversity.
