I did say 'similar'. Was it shot at night or day?
Sergio Monteiro
Thank you Mark, but it is the same case as in Saturniidae27's tip: many similarities, but some differences too. And "my" nynph doesn't have those striking blue eyes...

Andreas Kay found one very similar to yours Sergio... https://www.flickr.com/photos/andreaskay/44040491871

Thank you Saturniidae27. They are very similar, but also have a number of diferences. I think that they belong to the same genus, but are from different species. I'll keep looking for its ID.

I seem like I found the matching specimen, but no ID has been listed for this spotting(: https://www.jungledragon.com/image/59495/katydid_nymph_loreto_peru.html
