Could be. I will submit to bugguide. Those images on the species page you linked to were from Alaska, so it definitely occurs here. It was 1 cm or less

Athysanus sp. (and probably others as well) also have short wings, but I have no idea if they occur in Alaska...

Maybe this one http://bugguide.net/node/view/211076. Or else, something similar?

Looks like a leafhopper with short wings. How big was it? Maybe Evacanthus sp.?

That's so odd looking. It has to be a cicada, but the wings are too short for any I've seen. It almost looks like it's missing its longer pair of wings.
