May 16, 201511 yr ^ looks like Pyrops candelaria (or a very similar sp. as i see no 'yellow'). They're Planthopper's aka Lantern Bugs . . . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrops_candelaria
May 16, 201511 yr As Goshawk mentions, the Lantern Bug (Pyrops candelarius), also known as “Lantern Fly” or “Elephant Bug”. Good photos here - http://hongkongkwildlifephotos.blogspot.com/2010/08/lantern-bug.html
May 18, 201511 yr I have nothing to add to this thread. I'm just impressed of the knowledge embedded and shared by our naturalistic members. It took whopping 6 minutes to get a written reply to a question thanks oilinki . . . but they are fairly easy i.d's. I've seen/imaged 100's of them over the years. Pinpointing (i quit) Chonburiram's photo ? now that is something else, Mousehound is probably the best man for this one . .
