Ant/leaf hopper - Entylia carinata
New Salisbury, Harrison County, Indiana, USA
July 26, 2009
I believe this is an ant leaf hopper relationship because the ants don't appear to be harming the leaf hoppers and they attacked the scissors I that I tried to cut off some foliage to get a better shot with. I would appreciate iddentifacation on the ants and the leaf hoppers. Thank You.
