Hi Peter,
It's Speudotettix subfusculus, and I've only just found this one myself, so we don't even have a page for it yet! Still working on some of the galleries, but we're getting there... slowly... and cicadellidae is going to be huge.

Joe | Ah, so you're the Joe that works on that nice website! Strange... I never made the connection before
So is this bug new to the UK or something? Nice photo by the way, Peter!  |

I agree - it's a super website. They deserve our thanks for all the hard work they have put into it |

Rats - I've gone and blown my cover there, haven't I?  Glad it's appreciated, anyway.
This one is pretty catholic in its tastes, apparently - found in trees and sometimes on low vegetation. In other words, the host plant is green stuff. |
