Mottled Sand Grasshopper - Spharagemon collare
Kohler-Andrae State Park, Sheboygan County, Wisconsin, USA
September 3, 2006
This was in the sand at Kohler-Andrae State Park, a park right next to Lake Michigan that features sand dunes. This was the last of several different types of grasshoppers in the same area. Any help ID'ing it would be appreciated.
