grasshopper - Cratypedes
Xanthippus corallipes and Cratypedes lateritius can be confusingly similar in the Great Basin. It helps to see the fully spread wings, where the dark band looks somewhat different. However, I think this specimen is C. lateritius.

Possibly.
This is either Cratypedes or Xanthippus. I always get those two confused, in part because grasshoppers are no longer a primary interest of mine. Excellent images as always, and should be 'easy' to get a species ID at some point.
