Mistaken location
I just realized that I took this photo at Paynes Prairie, near Gainesville, Florida not in South Texas.

Why was my photo of a katydid
Why was my photo of a katydid moved from the ID Request?

I moved your image to the genus
Scudderia. You can see where your image was moved to by looking at the string of terms at the top. In this case I have moved to the genus as it is probably impossible to tell species (Scudderia are told apart by the male genitalia and this is a female).
