H.M. Spittlebug, T.E. - Aphrophora irrorata

H.M. Spittlebug, T.E. - Aphrophora irrorata
University of Colorado, Boulder County, Colorado, USA
September 25, 2018
Size: just over 1 cm
Collected in a CU physics classroom at the Boulder campus; I happened to have a microscope handy (and was reading The Marvelous Land of Oz during my lunch break). Following this guide makes me reasonably certain it's in Aphrophora, but this being my first post, I didn't want to place it there without a second opinion.
