Texas grasshopper
This grasshopper was photographed on reeds at the edge of a pond in the Coastal prairie of Central Texas, near the town of Refugio. Do you know what it is? Thanks,
Ron

Hi Ron,
We are nearly positive this is a Cattail Toothpick Grasshopper, Leptysma marginicollis, a shown on BugGuide, but it might also be the Glassy Winged Toothpick Grasshopper, Stenacris vitreipennis. Perhaps one of our readers can supply a definitive answer.
