More from arpad
this fine creature came out of one of my moss cultures. i have this horrible tenancy to collect larva/pupae and raise them to adult-hood, you see... and so i often get these magical adults.
D: the fault to this is that since my house is warmer than outside, some of them show up too early (like this poor fellow), and starve cause their host plant is not yet around. (it would take neither fruit or sugar water)
hummm i had classified this down to a family in Homoptera, but i've gone and forgotten :/ sorry.
scanned to a BILLION TIMES ITS SIZE

Intriguing... I don't really know about these things much myself, but just looking at it I'd say it was like a tiny version of these moths I sometimes see in the grass ^^
They look sort of like this:

no snobbyness taken! do you know about the joining of homo and hemi? someone commented to me something about thinking this one was hemi instead of homo, and it confused me because while i recalled them being clearly different, when i googled it the results were the same creatures :/
the no-larvea thing makes me question what i thought it was, but it definitely hopped and moved like a leafhopper (y'know that swaying motion and quick rotation?)
i found what i thought it was! the only difference (i see) is color pattern?

and what used to be Homoptera is now a suborder of Hemiptera. genetics stuff they found apparently I don't know the whole story... like they say in the bio-building, Taxonomists have very few friends. They're thining of splitting up Neuroptera and they've already amalgamated Isoptera into Blatodea. WHO IS NEXT!!! *dramatic bug type music*
ug how does one keep track of all the changes?
also, i found this http://bugguide.net/node/view/23786 ! one of the comments says that they live under bark and eat fungus there! in my moss cultures i keep a variety of wood-eating creatures, as well, so there's a good possibility one of the pieces of bark had a nymph on it :3
also, where do you work, if i might ask? i may be majoring in entomology in college, so i'm always curious to hear about jobs in or about that field.

well, the main guy here confirms it,you were right.
Auchenorrhyncha, once was Homoptera and still in it technically ^^ well good, I'm learning. I'm putting that on the final exam when I TA entomology this next semester
membraneous wings, spines on the tibia, *shakes head* well we're not perfect,
