Identification of odd Insect #879891

Asked August 02, 2024, 12:06 PM EDT

I found a tree branch with what looked like a fungus on it. I took a video and later zoomed in and realized it was insects. Hoping to identify them. Thanks.

Good Morning Dan, 

Thank you for contacting the U of M Extension Service. 

From viewing your photo, I believe it is the Beech Blight Aphid: https://content.ces.ncsu.edu/beech-blight-aphid

Please review the above information about the aphid. 

Good Luck!
