Buffalo treehopper Genus Stictocephala

Buffalo treehoppers are a bright green color and have a somewhat triangular shape that helps camouflage them so as to resemble thorns or a twiggy protuberance. It gets its name from the vague resemblance of its profile to that of an American bison.They grow to 6 to 8 millimeters (0.24 to 0.31 in) long and have transparent wings.
