Found this bug and another with a less prominent horn. I thought it was a young cicada but based on a Google image search doesn't appear to be the case.

Thanks,

It's a treehopper, a true bug in the family Membracidae. Some tropical species have 'horns' in truly bizarre shapes...

Thanks! I'm so happy to have found this forum. Identifying bugs with a field guide is impossible (for me at least)!
