Please watch for adults!

What plant was it on?

 
same location
this is from the same location 2 months later.
It is on a stinging nettle leaf.

 
It was on
It was on the railing of an aluminum seasonal bridge, right over the edge of the stream bank.

I've not paid to close attention to the understory vegetation on that side of the creek but I better, this is the 4th FL H I've had in an area less then 15 feet long. Predominate trees are Red Alder, some Coastal redwoods are less then 100 feet away.

I'll add a plant list for whats within 20 feet, after I come back from there on Nov 13th.

 
possible hosts
The usual hosts for Idiocerus are willows, alders, poplars and currants (Ribes).
