Spicebush leafhopper #1 - Dikrella cruentata
Pelham, Hampshire County, Massachusetts, USA
October 21, 2009
I found several similar, tiny, Erythroneura-ish leafhoppers on the same spicebush (Lindera benzoin). I'm sure some of them are the same species, but skeptical that all of them are. Unfortunately this is the only shot I got of this individual.

mix-up
Actually, these represent at least two genera, maybe more. I suspect that they are just on whatever vegetation is available this late in the season.
