Summer
I'll try again this summer. When I first staring to notice hoppers last year and before I discovered BG, I simply refered to as a keeled-back treehopper. Can't remember where I came about that.

 
Telamona salvini
Comment per Andy Hamilton:

It seems to be Telamona salvini (see attachment) but we have few specimens of this species and I have never seen one so highly mottled – it looks like lichen!

Animated lichen!
Wow, that is really cool camouflage.

 
Fabric Design
As an artist, I have been giving serious consideration to designing fabrics based on insect colors & patterns, particularly Hemiptera.
