Thanks Jemma, I found my other butterfly and moth spottings but not this one, that page needs to be turned into user friendly :)

Thanks but I really don't understand how that page works and the link you gave is directly to butterfly collection and there is no option to see everything. I'm just lost :)

That's nice, that way I can also remember and not confuse them.

Oh, I don't have much knowledge neither, I'm just an amateur. But I found funny the opposition between the names and the shapes, that's why I remember it.

I don't have much knowledge about these creatures but I'm learning so I should not repeat the same mistake next time, especially when soon I will start spotting french leafhoppers :)

I try to remember that usually planthoppers are leaf-shaped while leafhoppers not :)

Beautiful!
Not a planthopper but a leafhopper, Zygina, most probably Zygina flammigera. It seems there is Zygina discolor which can be confused with flammigera but I read that discolor can be found only in the southern Europe so you must have a Zygina flammigera.
