Field Notes

Description:

Flat and green. Much like the flat leaf lamina it is on. Green on green= difficult to spot. Seems to have a white lining. About an inch in length by eye estimation.

Habitat:

Roadside is lush. Trees rise from deep down the valley and the bushes and shrubs are many too. The third photo gives an idea. I was strolling down the one road in the remote region of Village Kewzig where the Bon Farmhouse is when I noticed that the top of the lamina was moving! That's when I spotted about a handful of these baby bugs.

Notes:

I have seen red Lychee bugs but this one is a new one for me. I would really love to ID this. Help, please,
