Short-winged Meadow Katydid - Conocephalus brevipennis - Male
Parkwood, Durham County, North Carolina, USA
September 12, 2005
Size: 16 mm
Captured at my porch light in the morning. Chiled and posed. (They warm up and bound off pretty quickly!) Length measured by photographing adjacent to scale. Identification based on photo of cerci, compared with SINA. Coloration and proportion of wings also match, compare SINA species account.
