Aphids, Scale Insects, Leafhoppers, and Tree HoppersWe live in the mountains of Honduras, and we frequently see these in groups on certain types of trees. Generally, there is also a cloud of them flying overhead, near the tree. The body of the bug is around 2 – 3" long. Thanks so much for any identification help you can give us!

Hi Trish,
We just received an amazing close-up of this Fulgorid Planthopper. Eric Eaton had it correctly identified by Lois O’Brien as Cerogenes auricoma.
