White Thorn Mimic Treehopper, La Isla Escondida, Colombia A beautiful little treehopper with a feisty thorn that is described as so strong as in being able to pierce a shoe. The Umbonia genus comes to mind, but I&#039;m unable to find any reference photo at all of a white thorn mimic treehopper. So this could be an interesting observation, or it could mean I&#039;m searching in the wrong direction :)<br /> <figure class="photo"><a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/69757/white_thorn_mimic_treehopper_-_front_view_la_isla_escondida_colombia.html" title="White Thorn Mimic Treehopper - front view, La Isla Escondida, Colombia"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/2/69757_thumb.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=CGYtH%2FCm%2FMUkK5ZScXfyh%2BMhImA%3D" width="200" height="150" alt="White Thorn Mimic Treehopper - front view, La Isla Escondida, Colombia A beautiful little treehopper with a feisty thorn that is described as so strong as in being able to pierce a shoe.
