Tree Cricket - Oecanthus pini -

Can this Tree Cricket be IDed to species? I understand there are marks on the antennae that aid in identification. Have added a close up of that area.

First time.

I ever saw this species so I am really lost on the ID. Thanks for your response, Ed.

Tree Cricket

Did you find this on a Pine tree or a Tamarack tree? I'm not an expert....am trying to learn more about identifying these myself. I do know that the Pine Tree Cricket has this type of coloring. Check out a photo at: http://buzz.ifas.ufl.edu/587pf.htm
The photo there shows the same brownish head and green body, brownish legs and even pinkish eyes. If it is a Pine Tree Cricket, I envy your find.

Actually....

Nancy, I found the cricket on the side of a building. There were no pine trees in the immediate vicinty.

Thanks for your reply.

Oecanthus pini

Legs are much greener than O. laricis. Great shot, and kudos on the timing!
