Leafhopper from an Unusual Angle - Coelidia olitoria

Leafhopper from an Unusual Angle - Coelidia olitoria
Near Ruraldale, Upshur County, West Virginia, USA
September 17, 2005
For some reason his pose seemed to invite this photo showing more of the ventral side than we usually see in Leafhopper pictures. ID help appreciated.

Coelidia olitoria
A female, feeding.

The trouble with this angle of view is the lack of an opportunity to see the very narrow head, which is distinctive for this genus.
