Treehopper and nymphs. Female Alchisme sp. treehopper (left) with two of her larvae on a branch. Treehoppers (family Membracidae) are insects whose bodies often take on bizarre forms thought to aid in camouflage. They are related to cicadas and leafhoppers. There are over 3,000 known species in over 600 genera, found on all continents except Antarctica. This adult has been injured (upper left), probably by a predator. Photographed in South America.
