Grasshopper

Great spot!! I believe this is a Sheid-backed Katydid! But, as Ismael commented, it will be difficult to identify down to species without seeing the entire insect. http://bugguide.net/node/view/284 - Hope this helps :)

Hello. I've ticked the box that says "help me ID this spotting" and blanked the scientific name (removed "unknown") because by filling anything in Scientific name tricks the software into regarding the spotting as identified. With this blank, it is marked as not identified (if the references are also blank). Thanks

But, im saying that you should put grasshopper for the common name, and then change it when you find out.

Very nice spotting, unfortunatelly grasshopers are very hard to identify and is harder if we can't see the body :(, I hope an expert can help you soon :)
