Aphid mummy

Aphid mummy

This aphid is actually a dead mummy. Aphidius colemani has laid it's egg inside a living aphid. The hatched larvae has eaten the living aphid from inside! Very barbaric and effective. It seems that Aphidius colemani has overwintered in my greenhouse and attacked immediately when they spotted some aphids.
