Grylloprociphilus imbricator is a small insect belonging to the order Hemiptera and the family Aphididae. Commonly known as the "cricket aphid," it has a distinct appearance with a cricket-like body shape and long antennae. This species is known for its unique symbiotic relationship with ants, as it secretes honeydew that attracts and benefits the ants, while the ants provide protection to the aphids. Grylloprociphilus imbricator is primarily found in grassy areas and feeds on plant sap using its piercing-sucking mouthparts.
