Nightshade bug - Enchenopa on-juglans-nigra

Size: 2 mm
Might be the cause of the many 1 mm dia holes seen in the leafs. Bug was photographed on joint of leaf axil and plant stem.

Moved
Moved from Free-living Hemipterans. This is the nymph of a Treehopper that feeds on Walnut. The adults should look like thorns sitting on the walnut twigs. You can see what the adult looks like by clicking on Images and then on the genus Enchenopa.

Nightshade bug?
Very good! There is a large, mature walnut tree directly overhead of the nightshade where I found this elegant bug.

Bug found on bittersweet nightshade
Yes, there is a mature black walnut overhead and dropping its fruit now.
Where should I look for more bugs?
Many thanks

Moved for expert att'n; membracid nymph, can't be the culprit...
...because of the sucking mouthparts

Moved from ID Request.
