Elatobium abietinum
- ... that the green spruce aphid often continues breeding in the winter but the nymphs enter diapause during the summer? "populations often continue to feed and reproduce through the winter. In spring and early summer alates are produced in response to the changing nutritional status of the host. They then migrate to other spruce where their nymphs aestivate for the summer before resuming development in autumn."

Article is new and long enough. QPQ has been completed. No pings on Earwigs. Hook is cited and short enough for DYK, but I don't know if "nymphs" and "diapause" are recognizable terms to a general audience (they aren't to me, anyways). Can synonyms be used?
