UnidentifiedInsect with corncob body
Enjoy your site immensely…..I sent you this photo yesterday, but I think it was probably too large. I’ve resized it, and would be curious to know what it is. It looks like a grasshopper got crossed up with a miniature ear of corn, and I don’t know where it got those huge hind legs that appear to be upside down! Thanks.

Hi Doug,
Thank you for reading about our current technical problems and resending your image at a manageable size. We have been forced to delete what we suspect are numerous wonderful images because we are unable to make individual requests to resend. This is some species of Katydid in the family Tettigoniidae. It is an immature nymph and will grow to have wings.

Hi,
I have been looking at the page with unidentified katydids (Katydids 2), and thought I could help with some ID’s. From top to bottom they are: Nymph of Scudderia sp.
