katydid - Aglaothorax ovata - Male
Short Canyon, Owen's Peak Watershed (in "flat" area east of the aqueduct), Kern County, California, USA
April 25, 2010
I think this may be the same species as this one I photographed two years ago in almost exactly the same spot. But this one is greener...

Found on indigo bush (Psorothamnus arborescens) at night.

Yes,
I think you are correct. This one is a male. I like this green coloring.
