Moved to new guide page
Moved from Bactericera. After exhaustive literature and specimen review it appears to be this species based on (among other things) the darkened anal angle on the wing (rare in minuta), the short genital segment (about twice as long in minuta), and the overall reddish coloration with pale ventral abdomen. More details on new guide page, plus some pinned specimens for comparison from BOLD here.

Bactericera
This one resembles Salix-associated Bactericera spp. I've seen from California, and indeed two of the Salix-associated spp. - B. salicivora and B. minuta - are found coast to coast. While ID in the west is much more complicated, in the east those two spp. are essentially the only options; unfortunately, both spp. are extremely similar and extremely variable, resulting in massive lists of synonyms for each and just a very confused understanding for both species overall.
