Absolutely stunning little friend, I was so scared it would jump away before I could get a good picture.

I feel like the bright yellow pattern might be mimicking another insect, even though treehoppers usually are mimics of the thorns and leaves of plants, but unfortunately there seems to be very little information on these fellas. A mystery 🤔
