| | | Is this a froghopper?
Found a rather distinctive insect today and I think it is similar to a froghopper  Who wants to place bets?
It is about 8 -10 mm long
Has wings longer than its body
Body viewed from below appears segmented
6 legs 
What appears to be horns (not antenna)
Its back looks like a spine with two loops in it
It is a brown/grey colour
I still have it in a bug box if any further details are needed but no technical terms please. |

I knew you would come up trumps. That's the one.
Have you seen my photos? My macro is even worse. 
Thank you |
