Drepanosiphinae is a subfamily of aphids in the family Aphididae. There are about 13 genera, 8 of which are extinct, and more than 60 described species in Drepanosiphinae.[1]
While a few authors have suggested treating the group as a family, this has not been adopted in the most recent classifications.[2]
