Thanks very much John - I was hoping you could tell me because I found it difficult to find a good match in any books or images so far.

Nice sharp image of the bugs Jonathon. I like the diagonal composition and the fact that the two bugs are engaged in some sort of mutual activity, possibly mating? I also like the nice clean background which helps the subject to stand out. Good natural history image. TFS

Great subject, well shot in great light! I sort of want to see the leaf tip, but I'll settle for what I see here!

Lots to like here, Jon! Behavior, color, sharpness, background, and diagonal comp. I would only wish to have a bit more room on the right so the the leaf tip wasn't touching the frame. Very nicely done!
