Leaf hopper? - Acanalonia conica

Size: Less than an inch long
This insect was on some sort of tall pine tree. It's definitely a leaf hopper, but can anyone help me figure out exactly what type?

Planthopper.
Resembles Acanalonia:



One of the experts may be able to tell you more (or correct me if I am mistaken).

Acanalonia conica
yes, of course; why the hesitation?

Why the hesitation?
A. bivittata, A. clypeata, A. immaculata, A. servillei... not to mention a dozen or so others, many of them not even in the Guide. They may all look obviously different to you; to this non-specialist, not so much. :)

Or were you being facetious?
