Adippe zebrina treehopper. It is known for its distinctive, roof-shaped "helmet" (pronotum) that acts as camouflage. They can also resemble other insects, leaves, thorns etc. They have a mutualistic relationship with ants with providing ants with honeydew, in exchange of which ants provide them protection from predators. They are found in Central and South America.
