    Just a tip that might help when searching for an ID. This is an adult froghopper. The nymphs are called spittlebugs. Posted 7 years ago, modified 7 years ago

      Thanks for clearing that up because I see the terminology used in confusing ways, such as "adult spittlebug". Posted 7 years ago

          It's like saying "adult baby", or "man child". Oh...wait. Posted 7 years ago
