Topic: Insect ID needed please.

[springbok]

Today I pricked out my Dahlias, and found what I can only describe as the tiniest little green grasshopper I have ever seen, underneath one of the leaves.  So small it would have to be seen with a magnifying glass.

I touched it with my dibber and it jumped off the leave and dissapeared.  As its in my green house, bit concerned its something serious and worried about other plants in there.  Checked all the others but couldnt see anything.

Anyone know what this tiny insect could be?

:D

Hi Springbokgirlie

i think it might be a leafhopper.
they usually start to show as the weather warms or the heaters come on in the greenhouse.
