The common name is a lanternfly, a type of fulgorid planthopper.

Pyrops spinolae looks closest to me. Might be a small problem with one spot though. http://www.vncreatures.net/e_news_15.php

Nice shot Laurent. Welcome to Project Noah. Maybe only a spelling mistake in the scientific name here? Pyrops candelaria ? http://www.flickr.com/photos/87155171@N08/7978323850 Pyrops lathburii ?
