A macro photo of a tiny green leafhopper clinging to a thorny green, raspberry bush stem. Its wings resemble a leaf with delicate vein patterns, blending into the plant. The background is a blurry green-gray.

Fruticidia bisignata, new to Essex (only third UK record), from my garden
Zygina lunaris, possibly new to Essex, from my garden
Liguropiajuniperi, possibly new to North Essex (VC19), from a local churchyard
What an incredible month November has been so far, and thanks to simply shaking some leaves.
Three new leafhoppers for me, two of these possibly new to Essex.

Been seeing a lot of these Three-Cornered Alfalfa Hoppers[?] (S. festinus[?]) recently and they are just precious. 🥰
Such a good-shaped creature.

#Grasshopper. This could also be the common-or-garden #cicada, which sings so sweetly in the suburbs but could equally be any #leafhopper, treehopper or spittlebug. Insect, plant and bird names can be very variable and fuzzy. Trust me on this.

An army of cuties coming along nicely. I am imagining this as a wall piece that is a "swarm of candy-striped leaf hoppers". I don't think this species actually swarms but in art it will. #ceramics #handbuilding #SciArt #insects #leafhopper

A red-banded leafhopper at the edge of a leaf. There are two leaves which take up most of the background of the photo, separated by less than an inch. The leafhopper is at the top center edge of the one on the left and it is facing left. It is primarily green with several red bands on the wings. The thorax is green and the head, abdomen, and legs are yellow. There is a bit of white on the top of its head and a black stripe across the middle of the head and a curved black stripe at the end of the tail

This #Leafhopper sold so quickly after its first appearance at a market 🙏 I'm always so grateful for every sale and customer, but especially when a brand new #painting flies the second it goes out to the public ❤️

Some critters in my garden today. This is 1 of a few Eastern Black Swallowtail caterpillars that I have.
I know leafhoppers can be destructive, but I only saw this one, and it is in a garden bed mostly full of plants for caterpillars to eat. It's pretty.

A speckled sharpshooter nymph. Speckled sharpshooters are a type of leaf hopper that lay their eggs in woody twigs, stems or leaf stalks. Adults are a similar shape, but are primarily brown with white speckles. #insect #bug #leafhopper #365species #biodiversity #nature
