Thanks, you nailed this one! I will keep in touch.
These are planthopper nymphs. Check out this page: http://www.dpughphoto.com/homoptera and look at the section on "Acanaloniid Planthopper nymphs." Similar, huh? And Dan, feel free to e-mail me whenever you want me to take a look at any of your spottings.
