Among them, the new species is most similar to S. yanonis. The ratio of hind tibiae to hind femora is more than 1.40 (1.47 – 1.59 in the new species and about 1.50 – 1.60 in S. yanonis), while in S. carpini (about 1.34) it is less than 1.40 (Sorin 1965). The apterous viviparous female of S. blackmani is also distinguished from S. yanonis by the following points (Figs 2 and 4; Table 1): 1. URS 0.64 – 0.68 mm, 0.52 – 0.58 mm in S. yanonis; 2. Ant IV 0.24 – 0.33 mm, 0.35 – 0.42 mm in S. yanonis; 3. The ratio of PT to Ant VIb is less than 0.20 (0.12 – 0.19, average: 0.16), more than 0.20 (0.21 – 0.28, average: 0.23) in S. yanonis; 4. The ratio of Ant V to III is less than 0.53 (0.49 – 0.52, average: 0.51), more than 0.53 (0.55 – 0.59, average: 0.56) in S. yanonis; 5. The ratio of Ant IV to III is less than 0.48 (0.32 – 0.46, average: 0.40), more than 0.48 (0.50 – 0.56, average: 0.52) in S. yanonis; 6. The ratio of URS to Ant III is more than 0.82 (0.86 – 0.97, average: 0.91), less than 0.82 (0.70 – 0.81, average: 0.77) in S. yanonis.	en	Lee, Minho, Kanturski, Mariusz, Lee, Seunghwan (2022): A new chestnut-feeding species of Stomaphis Walker (Hemiptera: Aphididae Lachninae) from Korea.

084F87B939628651FF4400FFFEFC15D1.taxon	biology_ecology	Host plant. Castanea crenata Siebold & Zucc. (Fagaceae). Biology. This Stomaphis species feeds on the basal part of the chestnut tree, at ground level or up to about 1.3 m above the ground (Figs 1 A, 1 C, and 1 D). Occasionally some individuals live in chambers made of soil by ants (Figs 1 A and 1 C), but mainly observed in crevices outside the chamber (Fig. 1 C). It is attended by ants (Lasius sp.) while from 14 August to 16 September the presence of Pristomyrmex punctatus (Smith, 1860) (Myrmicinae) was observed.	en	Lee, Minho, Kanturski, Mariusz, Lee, Seunghwan (2022): A new chestnut-feeding species of Stomaphis Walker (Hemiptera: Aphididae Lachninae) from Korea.
