Yes, I thought U. cirsii was the most likely but i wasn't sure.

interesting !
thx 4 your suggestion !
but i am afraid i found them feeding on a large thistle
while uroleucon are said to be only associated with daisy & campanulaceae ...
it possibly could be the small thistle aphid, dont you agree ?
