Enchenopa anseriformis An Enchenopa anseriformis treehopper on a mango leaf. I think this particular individual had a broken horn or maybe developed different from the others I've usually seen.

  1. Great photo! It's interesting to see the short horn...In addition to your thoughts, another possible cause would be sexual dimorphism. Posted 3 years ago
    1. Thanks Christine! I'm not quite sure the cause of the short horn...sexual dimorphism may be the case as I've been seeing others with a regular sized horn, similar to that of Enchenopa binoata. Posted 3 years ago
