A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Habitat: Subtropical mountainous area, hot & humid, thick trees and brush, close to running water.
Obviously a grasshopper of some sorts, but I'm coming up empty handed for a positive ID.
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
Acrididae, Catantopinae, Trauliini, Traulia ornata.
