Rhododendron Leafhopper
Sat 2009-09-26
A rhododendron leafhopper, Graphocephala fennahi (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), on the leaf of a bramble bush (though there were rhododendron bushes nearby). This leafhopper was introduced from the United States in the 1930's and is now common throughout southern Britain.
