Sophonia orientalis
Yellow Leafhopper in an early instar with two black dots on the end of the abdomen. The flash (night photo) helps show how translucent these are. The last image shows the exoskeleton that was on the same leaf.
This hopper was on an unknown plant at night in our backyard

Thank you Karen! I really like going out at night now. A lot of arthropods just freeze while you take their pics :)
Cool spot Cindy!
