This is a beautiful Hopper , and I would love to find out more about it as it is new to me . It was an over-cast day and it was found on a bridge 15' up and through waterway plants like the Cattails , Button-willows , and Oak trees . Thanks for any input , sincerely Beth

Cixius
The tuft of wax filaments at the end of the abdomen is characteristic of Cixiidae, not Achilidae.

Sorry, I don't know the species in CA.
