Placement
FYI - You have 6 images on this page, 5 without IDs, and this one misplaced.

Placement
Were the other 5 IDed using this one, or some other method?

Followed bad placement ...
Max,
Until you said called it to my attention, I didn't realize I had accidentally moved the original to vittatus, after Andy had ID'd as brunneus. I just kept adding subsequent one to the same bad placement. I reviewing each of then, there was one I'm uncertain about and moved it back for Expert Review



Thanks, again for saving me from myself

ID
Perhaps a Planthopper in the Delphacidae.

Thanks For Responding
I was thinking something in Stenocranus. S. acutus is the closest I found but not entirely satisfied. I mean, with 2,500 hopper species in NA, every vein counts :)
