Description
Dictyopharidae are small insects that feeds on the sap of living plants, but most species are not considered a significant threat to gardens or agriculture. They come in a variety of vibrant colors, and some species even have unusually long heads, but all of them have powerful legs that are adept at jumping, ensuring they can escape danger with a strong jump.
