Eurhadina loewii
Family: Cicadellidae

A distinctive genus of leafhoppers, with most species found on oak. This is the only species likely to be encountered on sycamore instead, and the pronotum and forewing patterning and colour can be distinctive.
  The nymphs are peculiarly flattened (below) and do not closely resemble the adults.

Length 4 mm
