Hello all
Found several of these at Anston Stones Wood on a wildlife foray with Les. I'm assuming it's a leafhopper but  
Sorry for poor technical image  
Any help as always much appreciated

Hi John,
This is a mirid bug rather than a leafhopper, and you've picked probably the worst angle for ID purposes! It's possibly Lygocoris pabulinus, but there are quite a few other options from this perspective...

Joe | Many thanks Joe
I did somehow think this angle was not good Les had a much better position so hopefully can upload a better image.

Hi John
Not sorted my images as yet  , but I have this as Calocoris alpestris. Incidently, the same plant bug as I found at Treswell Woods last week.

C. alpestris was another good contender, so you're probably right, Les. | | |
