Tettigoniidae
Photo take at night at my entrance door small Katidid whit nice green and red color, a strait line along the body on the back. Many tettigoniids exhibit mimicry and camouflage, commonly with shapes and colors similar to leaves
There are about 255 species in North America, but the majority of species live in the tropical regions of the world.
Tettigoniids may be distinguished from grasshoppers by the length of their filamentous antennae, which may exceed their own body length, while grasshoppers' antennae are always relatively short and thickened. Wikipedia
