I would think I'm not too far out on a limb if I guess this is a spittle bug. Any suggestion as to which one?

ID request
it's actually easier for me to find them under ID request than from individual family groupings; I didn't discover this one until more than half a year later, too late to ask for you to watch for the adult (possibly an Aphrophora)

Aphrophora
I did find an adult Aphrophora (actually two) about two weeks later on the same blackberry patch.

Ok
Thanks for letting me know. ID Request is a lot cleaner now too.
