I nominate Dr. Gabriel Mejdalani the Museu Nacional, Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, and Dra. Rachel Carvalho
A Ricania sp., close to (if not conspecific with) Ricania hedenborgi (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Ricaniidae). Ricaniids are usually widely polyphagous.
Dear All,
As Igor and Antonios put it, this must be a Ricania species.
Some months ago similarly another Ricania sp. was presented here at RG.
Bonjour,
it is definitely a Ricaniidae, you'll probably have your species in this article http://www.munisentzool.org/yayin/vol4/issue1/271-275.pdf
Best regards,

Dr C. A. Viraktamath Professor Emeritus, UAS, Bengalooru,
most probably Ricania hedenborgi , especially if it is collected from Fig or Citrus.
Dr. Hosseini Chegeni,
Your specimen belongs to the family Ricaniidae, probably the genus Ricania, and maybe R. japonica or R. hedenborgi.
