Tan Walking Stick - male

Tan Walking Stick - Male
Organ Mountains foothills, Doña Ana County, New Mexico, USA
August 6, 2006
Collected by day by sweeping and beating various shrubs. Did not measure, but it was 60 - 80 mm judging by ruler segment in one photo.

The insect was dead or nearly so in this photo, having been kept too long awaiting a photo session. It was posed on this vegetation, which is unlikely to be a host plant for this species. I note that, like the Greasew*ood Walkingstick, this one has small horns above its eyes, so I suspect they are closely related
