Eurybrachid hopper
Platybrachys sp.
-37.9532, 145.26
Field Notes
Description:
This one was about 11mm long and almost as wide. Fairly solid too as it made loud crashing noises when hopping through the leaf litter.
Habitat:
In a small copse of eucalyptus with a thick ground cover of leaf and bark detritus.
Notes:
Although I have found several Eurybrachidae nymphs I haven't seen an adult before. <br> Possibly Platybrachys decemmacula <br> Peter Chew has these described as 'Large Board-frons Planthoppers' <br> https://bie.ala.org.au/species/urn:lsid:biodiversity.org.au:afd.taxon:4… <br>
