This nymph was right next to the previous photo I submitted so could it possibly be a Thionia elliptica nymph, if that ID is correct? Thanks, Paul

Hysteropterum
This young nymph seems to be trying to feed; its head is rotated forward and the beak is directed straight to the substrate.

I had no idea that fulgoroid nymphs could rotate their heads like this - it suggests that they are related to Heteroptera, which have a gula and can therefore project their rostrum forward.
