Thanks bayucca. Jemma, the antenna are there, they just blend in with the blur of the leaf.

Cicadellidae, Cicadellinae, Cicadellini, Sibovia sp.. Note the white vertical stripe, this is typical for Sibovia sp., but it is not Sibovia prodigiosa from the link. There are many different types of Sibovia sp., so you have to check. I did not find a reasonable species match.

leaf hoppers do not have antenna?
