Thanks. Looks good for Hapithus agitator - Restless Bush Cricket. Is there anything else that might be confused with this species?

Looks probable
Hard to tell from this shot (for me). Check out SINA for additional information on species identification. Plus I'm not sure of the ranges of the different species off the top of my head; that may determine which it is, or not. By the way, you have a female (in front) and a male (in pursuit).

Based on the SINA range maps
Based on the SINA range maps Restless Bush Cricket, Hapithus agitator, is the only one that gets this far north. The rest are far south of here.
