Hi Joerg,
I'm not sure about the last image (still trying) but the others should indeed show different stages (early and late instars, green adult) of Rhinocola aceris.

I won't disagree with pictures 1 and 2, but picture 3 is of a typhlocybine nymph, and picture 4 is a freshly emerged typhlocybine, probably a
Eurhadina species

Hi Tony, thanks a lot for waking me up! Absolutely agree!

The first two are nymphs of
Periphyllus (Aphidoidea).

The great think about Diptera.info is that we usually get there in the end!

That's right, Tony, and while getting to the end one may learn a lot:
I was in doubt whether the flat ones could be aphids like Periphyllus as I only knew the aestivating 1st instars of
P. aceriola. But now I've seen, that P. testudinaceus produces these flat nymphs < 1 mm.
Thanks empeejay!
