Derbid planthopper (Apache degeeri)

Larose Forest

I think this must be my favourite bug - that face is so unique and unusual. The Derbid planthoppers are a largely tropical group, so it is pleasing we have some species here.

That is a beautiful bug/insect and you've captured it superbly in this sharp close-up image.

That face and the patterns on the body - what a strange and wonderful creature. Your sharp eyes led you to this super photo.

The face on this hopper put a smile on my face! So nicely photographed.

a likable face for sure, and the patterened hippie-trouser design on the wings so rich in nostalgic appeal..

Wow, what a super closeup of this planthopper! Both the face and the shape are so very unusual. V.
