Katidid

Tettigoniidae

Description:

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

Habitat:

There are about 255 species in North America, but the majority of species live in the tropical regions of the world.

Notes:

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
