In the present paper I report the first observation of army ants tending Hemiptera in Asia. On 7 October 2012 at 10:00 local time approximately 30 workers of Aenictus hodgsoni Forel, 1901 were observed and photographed collecting honeydew from around 50 Eutrichosiphum heterotrichum (Raychaudhuri, 1956) (Aphididae) on fresh shoots of a young 1.5 m high Lithocarpus glaber (Thunberg) Nakai, 1916 (Fagaceae) tree.
