The range of hosts of M. pistaciaecola includes gall-forming Fordini aphids on Pistacia, whereas the host ranges of M. vesicarii and M. japonica sp. n. encompass gall-forming Pemphigus aphids on Populus.

We have all known an ‘Emily Grierson’ at one point or another in our lives. We have all known someone who seems to think they are too important or too good to even be seen with someone that they think is a lesser to them.
