Looks like being a katydid nymph. There are many crazy ones in the jungles of Costa Rica and Panama. I don't know how the nymphs of the common sylvan katydids look like: Acanthodis curvidens: http://orthoptera.speciesfile.org/Common/basic/Taxa.aspx?ExpandImages=1 and Haemodiasma tessellata: http://www.flickr.com/photos/berniedup/7099036431/ So, please, just take it as a hint and don't be too fixed on the 2 names...
