Leafhopper is the common name for any species from the family Cicadellidae. These minute insects , colloquially known as hoppers , are plant feeders that suck plant sap from grass, shrubs, or trees.
Adults of C. clitellarius are 5 to 6 mm long, with males often being slightly smaller than females. [2] Their overall coloration is brown to black with a bright green "saddle" shaped mark on their back being a key diagnostic feature of the species, alongside brown and green or white stripes on the head.

Most species of leafhoppers produce hollow spherical brochosomes, 0.2–0.7 micrometres in diameter, with a honeycombed outer wall. They often consist of 20 hexagonal and 12 pentagonal cells, making the outline of each brochosome approximating a truncated icosahedron – the geometry of a soccer ball and a C 60 buckminsterfullerene molecule.
