Leafhopper
Psammotettix alienus
The adult leafhopper occupies grasslands, field margins, and cultivated cereal crops. It feeds on plant sap, moving between host plants by hopping and short flights. Its narrow body and strong hind legs make it difficult to catch among dense vegetation. Adults can transmit plant pathogens while feeding from plant to plant.
