Dear friends wherever you are, How are you #NatureObserver lovers?.

Photography-loving friends, this time I will share some photos of insects that look a little strange and shaped like robots and aliens. This insect is about the size of a grain of rice. Although it is small, it has a slightly strange and terrifying shape. The head looks hard and has horns that look like buffalo horns or animals like goats. At that time I found this type of insect black in color so it looks like a pest or leafhopper.

After looking further into the details of this insect, it turns out that it is a type of planthopper or something that damages plants. The Latin name of this insect is Subfamily Centrotinae. It is often found on leaves or wild plants growing in the garden. I slowly took some photos of him so that he would not fly away immediately. As a result, I got some photos of him driving because I used a macro lens of the apexel type. For the camera I used the Redmi Note 9 Pro cellphone.

Now here are some pictures about this one insect. I did not edit all the pictures and I immediately uploaded them here;
