These small moth-like sap-sucking hoppers can jump strongly as well as fly. Despite their name they are found on many garden plants, including this swanplant. Their size (body length about 5mm long) can be compared against that of the orange Oleander Aphids (also a swanplant dweller) in this close-up shot.
