Grasshopper or Katydid? - Scudderia - female

Grasshopper or Katydid? - Scudderia - Female

Katydid
And that's my final answer. :-)

 
Female Scudderia sp, nymph
You can tell she is female by her curved ovipositor. Can tell she is a nymph because of a lack of wings. Scudderia sp. (bush katydids)have proportionately very long hind legs.

 
Thanks
I couldn't find one in the guide... Nice to know what to call her.
