sullivanbeckers's Identifications

I think but am not sure that mating was in progress. When I pulled the branch nearer, they both hopped/flew away.

I saw several molts on the large mulberry tree, did not manage to spot any live hoppers. Neat that it pops up on Computer Vision.

Shell from molt; on red mulberry

Looks like on M. rubra

Presumably male due to dark color. In third picture, note there was another sitting not far away on the same branch, but that one flew off as soon as I disturbed the branch.
