Insect and Spider Identification: CLOSED: CLOSED: Aphids?, 2 by wrongwayrel

3ish Questions:
- Are these aphids? / What are they? (Inside red highlighted areas)
- If you happen to know, what kind of plant is this? Would it reroot if I put a clipping in water?

** This is an indoor plant in Rochester, NY.

It's weird because the insects seem to be dried out and don't appear to move at all when I touch them (which is why I thought maybe they aren't aphids even though they look like they are). I wonder if it's possible that they all died from being in a cold (unused) house during the winter. Regardless, I am afraid to bring this home and introduce them to my other plants- Wondering if there is a way to start a new plant with a clean branch from this one.

Thanks!
