Allygus mixtus leafhopper found on a fencepost at the edge of Little Bampton Common in the Finglandrigg Wood Nature Reserve, 30 October 20.
I photographed my first one of these on 22/9/16 - although as only a low resolution dorsal shot was taken it wasn't possible to separate it from the very similar, but locally scarce, A. modestus. I've seen plenty since then but have largely ignored them due to the ID issue. However, the two bugs can apparently be separated by the diagonal markings on the vertex, which are found exclusively on the latter. These are absent on this specimen (best seen from Photo 3), implying Allygus mixtus.
Today we put the pumpkins in their place of honor: adorning the posts of the garden fence. It's a traditional sign of the coming of Fall, perhaps a tad early this year?
Thanks to Tim for id. On a fence post near birch (and Scots pine) on a threatened site in Strathspey, Scotland.
The stark Iowa scenery looked great in monochrome. SO many pictures I saw along the drive unfortunately no good way to stop for most...Ah well :-)
My Dad has a big property in PA and has this view (among many others) of the mountains and valleys below.
