It’s the second time I see one of those around the house. I’ve been told it usually lives in rice field and it’s just a grasshopper… But I don’t quite believe it.

Dear Jean-Luc,
We wish we had more time to write about this Lanternfly, but we are already running dangerously late this morning.

The “Lanternfly from Thailand” posted yesterday is probably Fulgora candelaria. Searching Google Images yields a number of extremely similar pictures.

Thanks W. Randy,
Pyrops candelarius brings up matching photos as well.
