A fairly large and well-camouflaged hopper. It actually looked moth-like with the naked eye. ID help appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks!
Thanks, I think it does look like a Rhynchomitra. I'm not sure how to differentiate confidently between R. recurva and R. microrhina, though. I'll move to genus level and maybe someone more expert than I am will be able to help out to species level. Thanks!

Microrhina has the longest snout of them all
