Tuberculatus is a genus of aphids belonging to the family Aphididae,[1] and was first described in 1894 by Aleksandr Mordvilko.[1]

The genus has cosmopolitan distribution.[2]

Aphids of this genus feed on trees from the family Fagaceae (beeches, chestnuts, oaks).[3]

Aphids are plant pests and also vectors of plant diseases.[4] Hence, the symbiotic relationships of Tuberculatus species with both ants[5][6] and bacteria[7] has been extensively studied to discover both their co-evolutionary and ecological relationships.[4]
