Eye-patterned Gum Hopper 1 - Platybrachys sp.

Family Eurybrachyidae  

This page contains pictures and information about Eye-patterned Gum Hoppers 1 that we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.
 
Body length 20mm
 
We found this planthopper a few times on Scribbles Bark Gum Tree trunk during mid summer in Karawatha Forest. This species look very similar to the Platybrachys decemmacula although its wing patterns are slightly different and the head is pale brown in colour.

From the reference we know that Platybrachys sp. are usually dimorphous, male and female are looked different. This hopper may be the male or female of other known species inthis page.
