Thanks RiekoS and drP! Yes, they are mites on the anntennae. I try to color coordinate all my bugs, lol. ;-)

Happy to help.It's a beautiful spotting. The color of the katydid and lily go perfectly together. Even the mites (at least I think they're mites) on the antennae are color coordinated with the rest of the spotting!
