While I was cleaning the plantation, I suddenly managed to find a leafhopper, and this is one type of grasshopper that has a shape and color that is quite different from other grasshoppers. This grasshopper has a very striking advantage, namely in its color, its color is green and looks very similar to the color of the leaves around it, of course this is an advantage because it can easily hide or camouflage among the leaves. Its size is also not too big so it can move and fly quickly, if we look at it from its appearance, then this grasshopper has a unique shape, the size of its wings is longer than the size of its body.

This grasshopper also has a relatively stable population in my area, and we can easily find it in plantations or on the edges of forests. This is a green grasshopper, but in several other areas I have also found this one with brown stripes, but I believe they are the same species, the only difference is the color.
Okay everyone, now I will share some pictures of this grasshopper here.
