Vashon BioBlitz 2014 - Could this be Pissonotus melanurus? - Pissonotus delicatus
Lisabeula Beach, Vashon, King County, Washington, USA
July 13, 2014
I discovered this planthopper on gumweed -- Grindelia integrifolia, I think -- growing along Puget Sound shoreline. It sure looks a lot like the Pissonotus melanurus I've photographed back in southern California, but I don't see any PNW records on BugGuide for that species, or even for the genus for that matter. Any help in pinning down an ID would be much appreciated by myself and all those involved in our most recent Bioblitz. Thanks!
