  • Two bugs hatching from barrel-shaped eggs deposited on a holly leaf adjacent to the main vein. The bugs rock back & forth dorso-ventrally like you pull the cork from a champaign bottle. Upon hatch each nymph is already twice as long as the egg it came from.
  • Immature leafhopper with hind legs extended as in mid-jump. The length and strength of these legs instantly propels the insect away from danger. check
  • Ventral surface of an immature leafhopper. The insect walks primarily using the first two pair of legs. The last pair remain in the position seen above and don't assist much in moving around. They are powerful jumping legs that quickly remove the insect from danger. By remaining in the "launch" position at all times they can react more quickly- milliseconds in the insect world can make the difference between life and death. check. uncertain id
