I spotted this cool looking plant hopper on my dwarf Willow in my front garden. I've never seen one like this. I only caught a few pictures from a distance, I zoomed in and cropped the photo for a better view.

Sounds great. Enjoy the rest of your time in China! Can't wait to see what spottings you have :)
Sure Cindy, that sounds like an interesting mission, planthoppers are so cool. I'm in China right now and internet is slow at best but as soon as I can get the time or a better connection, I will add my spottings.
Hello, I started a mission that focuses on the hoppers. I'm hoping it will global rather than just the 300 mile radius of where I'm at. Regardless, I'd really appreciate you adding your hopper spotting(s). http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8096... Thank you!
That's a cool looking fella :)

I think its may be similar Horned treehopper (Centrotus cornutus)
