Helicopter-like Treehopper bug caught on camera
This is a treehopper from the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador.
Treehoppers are insects related to cicadas and leafhoppers.
Most treehoppers have a highly modified pronotum on the back, in this case forming five hairy globes and a long spine, probably serving to deter predators.
