Ash (Fraxinus)-Aphid

Includes leafcurl ash aphid (Prociphilus fraxinifolii)

Pest description and damage Leafcurl ash aphids cause significant curling and twisting of ash leaves that provide protection for the white, waxy, 0.1-inch aphids inside. The consensus is that damage substantially disfigures leaves but does no lasting damage as the leaves continue to photosynthesize sugars for the plant.
