Broad-tipped Brown Katydid

Hello, sorry for the delayed reply. Katydids do indeed hop but the mission is focusing on the Auchenorrhyncha suborder which consists of Froghoppers/Spittle Bugs, Leafhoppers, Sharpshooters, Planthoppers, Lanternflies, Peanut-head flies, Treehoppers, Piglet Bugs and Cicadas.

Hi Cindy, I dont understand...katydid's are hoppers too, arent they?

Hi Tamir, I've removed this from The Hoppers mission for you as it doesn't fit in per the overview and details :)

Thanks for the ID

And I've photographed several in my area.

How can you tell?

Looks like a katydid
