Saccharodite chrysonoe
Crossed eyes and two pairs of clear wings. About 7mm long including wings.
Resting on a metallic painted car hood at night.
These planthoppers are always cross-eyed which runs in the family. Not 100% with this ID. Not a lot of information to species. Hope to review later. Nick Monahaghan seems to agree though... http://lifeunseen.com/index2_item_6874.p...

Happy Valetine's day to you too Juan.
Thanks for finding out the ID of this one, Mark.
It really helps me in identifying a similar one I have found.

Thank you DrNamgyalT.Sherpa They are not very common so I was pleased to find it - even if on an automobile.
Mark what a beauty spotting! Congrats.
Ha! ..although I'm not quite sure if the huge biceps are necessary.
Perhaps it is time for a non cross eyed Derbid hopper guy with big wings and huge biceps to charm some of the ladies in this species...
