Thanks John B, I will name it that because i found out that the spots in the face are absent in the male.

Hi arne, I am not certain, but I think your Leafhopper is Idioscopus clypealis. There is a picture on - https://www.waiwiki.org/index.php?title=File:Idioscopus_clypealis.jpg Another possibility might be Ideoscopus nitidulus, but I think yours is more like I. clypealis John B.
