A proper nosey bug ... 

What about this for a long snout? This would put Barry Manilow to shame. It's a Long Nosed Planthopper that decided to appear on my plant at the front door. A few snaps, however, and it jumped about 3 million miles away. Still, the photos came out OK. It is possibly Dictyophara nakanonis or a closely related species.

Order: Unknown
Family: Unknown
Vernacular name: Long Nosed Planthopper
Scientific name: Dictyophara nakanonis (possibly)
