I almost didn't see the Bolbonota because of the Ant. Sorry.
Hi Larry. You are right, there are a couple of Enchenopa (the ones with white), but smaller treehoppers are Bolbonota. Then I didn't want to put all the scientific names on the label because is too much
I think this treehopper is Enchenopa sp

Obviously there a 2 scientific names for the tree hoppers. Just a guess, since you have another IDea of the genus.
