ID: Planthopper nymph and Horned Treehopper nymph
An interesting set of sightings along the branch of a plant, though the snow white planthopper nymph was the one that attracted our attention, the well camouflaged treehopper nymph was a surprise as we couldnt spot it until we observed it very closely. While the treehopper hardly moved, the planthopper nymph kept moving all along the branch to get away from our intrusive equipment, its during this moment that both of them came close to each other, yet the treehopper nymph hardly moved, almost going on with the frozen camouflage. It was interesting sighting to study the diverse behaviour of the two species.
