What the heck is this thing? They're all over our tomatoes. They hop like grasshoppers.
To me it looks like an obvious grasshopper, but I can't find anything that looks like it when I google around for black/red grasshoppers.

This is a nymph of an Aztec spur-throated grasshopper, Aidemona azteca (Orthoptera: Acrididae) - see http://tinyurl.com/24aehx5 for an image. The adults are not nearly as colorful - see http://tinyurl.com/292wn4c
