Treehopper (Acutalis tartarea)

One of the tiniest of treehoppers, this is a difficult to photograph species because of its size and its habit of quickly moving away either by running around the stem of a plant or hopping to another one. It is, however, quite common at the garden, and early August, or late July, is when I usually begin seeing them in good numbers.
