I’d way rather have one of these on me than a deer tick….
a tree hopper?
After seeing elizabeth bradley’s comment, I googled “tree hoppers” and OMG.. some of those little creatures look so alien… freaky!!
Tree hoppers and kin have colors crazier than a mandrill’s butt. But butt or no but, it’s not a tree hopper.
At first glance I didn’t notice the leaf (or the scale) — I thought it was a cross between a Shih Tzu and a Chihuahua, with some Yoda thrown in. Very strange.
Looks like the exuvia of a tortoise beetle larva, complete with a fecal shield.
