At least this vermin has the decency to be pretty

Wow! What nature can do is amazing! Thanks for sharing these with us.

Both are interesting, the leafhopper is very nice and beautiful colors, I would like to caught one like this in my lens.

The leaf hopper is cute, but you're right, it is vermin! The moth looks similar to a european species, the Poplar Hawk Moth. They carry their hindwings forward of the forewings??!

Wow really beautiful !! I hope it was not chomping down hard on your orchids !

I hate to admit that I have a wall full of specimen mounted insects. I would love to have that little leaf hopper.
...Just so you know, I can't kill anything. I started finding old mounted bugs in flea markets and such. Most of mine are antique.

Leaf hopper look weird and pretty

Very nice shots.
