Thanks Martin... Johan - I may have to record it as here 8-]
It may not even be this genus, but it does seem to be a meadow katydid. http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
Thanks Johan. Unfortunately not recorded in Australia... maybe because there are no meadows :-)
Looks like a Meadow Catydid (Conocephalus caudalis)
