Prosapia bicincta
Found within the mangals vicinity, the size is about 12 millimeters in length, I haven't notice any individual within the forest, either they stay within the canopy or remain on the shoreline. This specific may NOT be bicinta but a different species altogether.
South east Asia, Philippines, balabac.
Identified by Stephen Thorpe.
No, it isn't even close to Eurymeloides, except in superficial colour pattern. The structure of the head is totally different. I will try to work out what it is ...
Question, could it be a variant of Eurymeloides bicincta?
Although the pattern is similar, the color pattern varies greatly, so I am doubtful about bicinta, I have hard time finding literature locally on Cicadellidae, beside this species may originate from Malaysia as the location where this picture was taken is quite close from there.
