i5K Comments for Quadrartus yoshinomiyai
Quadrartus yoshinomiyai is an interesting because they are a gall forming aphid with an interesting behavior. They have older workers past their reproductive prime that will commit self-sacrifice against a predator by adhering to them with a sticky liquid. They nest clonally, and would make an ideal research model once their genome is sequenced. John Shorter
