Zygina flammigera
This froghopper is the commonest of a very tricky group of similarly marked and variable species. It is often common in gardens and overwinters in conifers or dense evergreen shrubs. Zygina flammigera measures little more than 3mm in length. These were found to be common in a Mapperley garden at Nottingham, on a mild March day in 2011.
