Insect Identification Hi everyone, I was trying to remove the yellow leaves from my butterfly bush and discovered these little guys. They’re sitting in a foamy mass. I put the first one back exactly where it was, and it doesn’t seem like I’ve damaged anything. Can anyone tell me what kind of insects these might be?

Eine Schaumzikade?

Ja, Schaumzikade.

Danke für die Antwort. Sind die ungefährlich für meine Pflanzen?

Solange sie nicht massenhaft auftreten, ist das eigentlich kein Problem. Bei starkem Befall oder jungen Pflanzen können sie die Triebe schwächen, da sie Pflanzensäfte aus den Blättern saugen.
