Field Notes

Description:

Very large orthopteran, aprox 9-10 cm long, dull, neutral colour. Probably from Tettigoniidae family, but I am no expert.

Edit - Thank you kozoga! I should have realised this is not a tettigoniidae, one can tell by the antennae, too!

Habitat:

Green area on the side of the road, near the port.
