Waxy planthopper, Cerogenes auricoma, Fulgoridae (Lanternbugs)

Found in Mexico and Central America, these bizarre-looking planthoppers are not afflicted with fungus! This species excretes white and yellow waxy filaments as a by-product of their sucrose-rich diet that build up over time and are thought to provide protection from predators and parasites. These filaments can reach lengths of over eight inches!
