Spissistilus festinus
It is a species of Tree hopper that has a smooth curved head.The wings are clear while the head and abdomen are green.This species is found commonly in places of Texas.At the end of the head is a large sharp end.
Semi-urban, Fort Worth, Texas.
This species varies in size, the males have some red and are smaller while the female I found is larger and has no red.It was sitting on a grape fruit plant that is bright green just like the insect.
