Of the Asian aphid genus Anomalosiphum , A. mendeli and A. essigi are described as new. Winged sexual forms of A. mendeli are reported here for the first time for an Anomalosiphum , featuring oviparae bearing pedunculate eggs. A key to the known species of Anomalosiphum is presented. Possible phylogenetic affinities between the Greenideinae, Neophyllaphidinae and Aiceoninae are discussed. © 2006 Government of Canada, Natural Resources Canada, Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society , 2006, 146 , 239–249.
