For your info, under Habitat heading please be sure to state the habitat you actually saw it in and not where the books say you should find it. This helps to analyze changes of habitat which may occur over time.
''Belalang'' in Indonesian, ''Walang'' in Javanese (Java island)
I thought Indonesian for Grasshopper was "balalang"
thanks,
in Indonesia especially in Java, known as Walang Pocong
Longheaded Toothpick Grasshopper is what we call it in the States. You likely have another name.
Hi Stephen, welcome to Project Noah.
