| | | Leaf hopper ID
Spotted this leaf hopper today taking the sun on a fence- not seen this species before- about 6mm long.
Any ideas on ID ?
Thanks
Brian v.

Evening Brian,
It looks to be an Idiocerus species; these tend to become active in the later part of the year (unless that just relates to some).
Take care,
Jason |

Almost certainly I. vittifrons, but these are a tricksy bunch... |

yes, a female I. vittifrons/I. ribauti. We should really be using the current generic name Acericerus for these. |
