Dictyssa
Yes, but not the same genus. This appears to be related to Dictyssa obliqua (see bugguide.net/node/view/263080#436125).

Looks like it
It must be. Is it a nymph, then? Do they get any better-looking when they grow up?

Yes, Nymph...
You might move it to Planthoppers and someone MIGHT id it. And while you are there, look at the adult images :)
