Found this Lycorma delicatula late stage nymph on a Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum) on our front porch this morning. Disposed of the insect with soapy water -- too bad such a beautiful creature is so destructive.
There is an excellent brief overview of the insect's life cycle on the Mt Cuba Center website: https://mtcubacenter.org/the-life-cycle-of-the-spotted-lanternfly/
