Whiteflies are Hemipterans that typically feed on the undersides of plant leaves.

They comprise the family Aleyrodidae, the only family in the superfamily Aleyrodoidea. More than 1550 species have been described.

I got you:
Aleyrodidae (whiteflies) Top score: 17 Soft, floaty, and kind of everywhere. You seem harmless, until you suddenly take over the entire houseplant. About them: They are tiny sap-suckers that swarm in ghostly clouds and multiply like it's their full-time job.

Hi David. Yes, fortunately with Aleyrodidae it tends to be the larvae or pupal cases that are more distinctive than the adults. The dark patterning and on Hawthorn are enough to identify this one as Ash Whitefly, Siphoninus phillyreae I’d say.

A close-up macro photograph of an empty whitefly puparium on a holly leaf surface. The puparium, positioned in the center of the image, is a dark brown to black oval-shaped case approximately 1-2 millimeters in length, representing the empty pupal shell left behind after an adult whitefly has emerged. The puparium is surrounded by distinctive white, waxy secretions that form delicate, cotton-like filaments extending radially outward in all directions. These bright white waxy threads create an almost starburst or flower-like pattern against the green background, characteristic of the protective waxy material produced by whitefly nymphs during development. The holly leaf surface displays the typical texture of this plant species, with a bright green coloration and numerous small bumps and indentations creating a stippled appearance across the leaf surface. Fine, translucent trichomes (plant hairs) are visible extending from various points on the leaf. To the left of the puparium is a brownish, irregularly-shaped discolored area on the leaf surface, likely representing tissue damage from whitefly feeding activity during the insect's development. Small dark spots and debris are scattered across the leaf surface. The photograph is captured with shallow depth of field, keeping the puparium and surrounding waxy secretions in sharp focus while the edges gradually blur. Natural, even lighting illuminates the scene, creating strong contrast between the dark empty pupal case, bright white waxy filaments, and vibrant green holly leaf surface.

Our DNA library is made possible thanks to the support of our funding partners.

Today’s featured specimen is a tiny hemipteran from the Aleyrodidae family, collected in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. This record was made possible through funding from the Walder Foundation.

Yellow ladybird (Propylea quatuordecimpunctata) on our raspberry bush!
They’re not particularly rare, but like their red counterparts, they’re very useful:
they feed on aphids, whiteflies (Aleyrodidae), scale insects, and the larvae and eggs of certain beetles and butterflies. 🐞

Aschersonia mackerrasiae, a parasitic fungus on whiteflies (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) in the tropical & sub-tropical rainforests of Australia.
Named after Mabel Josephine Mackerras (1896 –1971), an Australian zoologist, entomologist and parasitologist.

Sternorryncha as a group show a fascinating set of shared traits: flattened, plant feeding forms with defensive wax. Whitefly puparia are immobile and fused to the plant. Psyllids retain mobility but share traits like wax production for defense. #entomology #Hemiptera 🧪 #Aleyrodidae #Psylloidea
Scanning electron micrograph of a whitefly puparium (Aleyrodidae) viewed from above. The body is flattened and oval, with a fringe of fine, curling wax filaments. Three elliptical eggs with longitudinal slits are nearby. The plant surface shows textured epidermis and stomata. Scanning electron micrograph of the adult psyllid Ctenarytaina peregrina, in lateral view. The insect has a compact, streamlined form with densely textured wings, prominent antennae, and bent legs held under its body. The background is smooth and dark.

What's that? The world is insane, but you need your wonderfully-alien-yet-beautiful critters?

Say. No. More. 😎

Welcome to the microscopic world of #whitefly pupae. Under your nose & on your plants, these tiny bugs are suckin' juices & lookin' snazzy [adults, not so much]

Close up of a raspberry whitefly (Trialeurodes ruborum). It is a flat, shiny black, wrinkly oval with evenly spaced rays of white wax surrounding the body's edge. It's on a purplish red leaf. The insect in life is only a couple millimeters long. Close up of a whitefly pupa (Parabemisia myricae). It is a flat, shiny translucent green, wrinkly oval with evenly spaced flat rays of white wax surrounding the body's edge. It's on a green leaf. The insect in life is only a couple millimeters long. Close up of a whitefly pupa (Aleurochiton forbesii) from a maple bonsai. It is slightly raised off the leaf surface by wax like a small cake, and is brown and tan mottled with a roughened surface. It's on a greenish gray leaf. The insect in life is only a couple millimeters long. Close up of a whitefly pupa (Aleuroplatus). It is a flat, shiny black, wrinkly oval obscured by numerous wax plates coming out of the top, looking like white or translucent hard candy ribbons. It's on a green leaf. The insect in life is only a couple millimeters long.

At the local dog park, there were thousands of teeny tiny gnat thingies. Had no idea how to ID something so small I could not get a sufficient photo with my cell phone, so I google 'teeny tiny yellow gnat' and eventually learn they are "Whiteflies" (family Aleyrodidae), a type of true bug.

Cockerell (1898) described this whitefly species as with "...ribbon-like rays of glassy secretion, not much shorter than itself. These rays are of a bright lemon yellow".

Now we have some live photos to show it! Lemon yellow indeed. Aleuroplatus vinsonioides (Aleyrodidae)
