Field Notes

Description:

tiny orthopteran, pink and brite green

Habitat:

grassy meadow, right at the edge of the mowed and waste high plants

This is my second spotting of this species. They were only found in a small localized area near a river in goldenrod and grass meadow growth. They were very active in the heat of the day.
