Leafhopper

Found worldwide in varied habitats including gardens, forests, and agricultural crops where host plants are available.

They feed on the sap (phloem) of a wide variety of plants using piercing-sucking mouthparts.

Known for their jumping ability when disturbed. They communicate using substrate-borne vibrations and often produce honeydew, a sticky waste product.

They are considered agricultural pests because they can transmit plant diseases (like phytoplasmas and viruses) and damage foliage, though they serve as a food source for many predators.
