Grasshopper

Calliptamus barbarus

Description:

Around 6 to 7cm long. I believe it's wings were red, for whenever it flew I saw only a red flying spot.

Habitat:

Forest (not dense) on a mountain range near the sea. Around 260m high (unsure).

Notes:

Found during a family picnic.

Olá Zariga!
Aparentemente o link que passei como referência para a identificação está com erro.
Este é o link do artigo que trata das espécies que ocorrem em Portugal: http://digital.museus.ul.pt/files/origin...
Envio também um link com as espécies do gênero em geral: http://naturdata.com/taxa/Animalia/Arthr...
Espero te ajudado!
