Planthoppers mating (Cedusa)

These are tiny (2mm in length) bugs in the family Derbidae. They are common but due to their tiny size are usually overlooked. I thought they were a bit of dust on the leaf until I looked more closely!

I can guarantee you I've never seen one of these and probably never will. :) If they're the size of dust then this is an incredible macro. V.
