Candy-Striped Leafhopper (Graphocephala coccinea)

These colorful bugs can be found from southern Canada to Panama and, despite their beautiful appearance, are quite the pest! It can be assumed from their colorful appearance that these hoppers are toxic... But they're not! They escape predators using their powerful legs to leap a significant distance. The hairs on their legs repel water and allow them to carry pheromones.

Candy-striped leafhoppers feed on common garden plants such as rose and blackberry bushes, alongside other ornamental plants. They have piercing-sucking mouthparts which allow them to suck the sap from plant leaves, causing damage to the plants. They are a vector for Pierce's disease, a devastating leaf scorch targeting many types of ornamental and fruit-bearing trees.

The candy in their name does not refer only to this bug's colourful stripes; this leafhopper creates bubbles of waste from its abdomen, the sweetness of which attracts flies and wasps to feed. They're like a walking candy shop!

top five bugs

1. my absolute number one is the wooly bear caterpillar. they are fuzzy and delightful.

2. the candy-striped leafhopper is an excellent little dude who looks like he would be fun at parties!

3. dragonhunters, mostly bc their name is badass, but they're also ultra efficient predators that take down other dragonflies, and look very cool.

4. my best friend the long horned bee. a fuzzy pal with horns!

5. spiders are not bugs but I really like barn spiders. the ones who lived on the porch of my childhood home caught and ate a hummingbird once. sad but badass.

Assign me a bug hermanito (OR SHOULD I SAY. HER-MANTIS-O)

You really shouldn't say that </3

This one is hand picked just for u!

You get...

CANDY-STRIPED LEAFHOPPER!

Looks just like you, doesn't it? Hehe

Their range is from Canada to Panama!

Like the name implies, they hop 40 times their body length! They also eat plant sap.
