Field Notes

Habitat:

Spotted in our backyard vegetable plot, on String Beans (Vigna unguiculata L.). In the Philippines, String Beans are called Sitaw. Plant information is from http://www.stuartxchange.org/Sitaw.....

Notes:

Hemiptera, Fulgoroidea; Dictyopharidae, Raivuna sp. For several years, I struggled to try and identify this strange little Long-nosed Planthopper. It was all to no avail until a few months ago when arne.roysland kindly sent me the following link..... Thanks again Arne.
