Planthopper Nymph - Acanalonia bivittata

Acanalonia bivittata
Now that we know all 4 eastern Acanalonia, this must be A. bivittata.

Update: Sept. 21, 2004
I have seen many of these smaller nymphs with older ones like this:

...and full-grown adults around my gardens, (especially on our Hastas plants) throughout the summer. I am assuming that these are all juvenile forms of the green Acanaloniid Planthopper.

...if anyone has anymore info/corrections, please let me know...
