Green Mottled Planthopper - Siphanta hebes
Family Flatidae, subfamily Flatinae, tribe Siphantini
This page contains pictures and information about Green Mottled Planthoppers that we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.
- Body length 15mm
- This Green Planthopper is triangular in shape with pink eyes and a pointed head. The forewings cover the body like sloping roof when it rests. This species has the dot patterns on the wings with brown wing edges.
- We thought this species was Siphanta acuta. Dr. Murray Fletcher sent us email advised that it might be S. hebes rather than S. acuta.
