Large numbers (hundreds) of these in one spot along this road, on multiple hosts including Ambrosia, Macroptilium and Sesbania. Photos here include eggs and early instars.

Note the black-rimmed spiracles on the venter, which is diagnostic for this species vs any others in the genus.
Found on Quercus myrtifolia. 2-3 individuals observed on same shrub, but did not disturb broadly. This one was briefly captured, photographed, and released.

On Gumbo Limbo (Bursera). See ref: https://journals.flvc.org/fshs/article/download/87687/84488
Excerpt:
" The product was sequenced directly
using automated equipment at the University of Florida’s Core
Genomics Laboratory. Comparison of the resulting sequence with
the GenBank nucleotide database by blast analysis determined
the sequence to share 100% identity with the aster yellow sub
group phytoplasma subgroup 16S1-B strains rDNA sequences
archived in the database."
