Treehopper nymph and adults - Publilia concava

Treehopper nymph and adults - Publilia concava
Pittsburg, Coos County, New Hampshire, USA
September 12, 2005
Size: 4 and 4.5mm
Are these Publilia concava?

Publilia concava
Yes. The only other species with this shape (P. reticulata) has the ridges across the pronotum forming a meshwork pattern instead of 3 or 4 nearly straight lines.

 
nymph of Publilia
Note also the less extensive pale markings of the nymph, and its more pointed process near the front of the pronotum, compared to those of Entylia carinata.

 
Thanks
for the ID's, and the heads up on the difference between this and P. reticulata.
