Amblycorypha oblongifolia
This specimen has all the characteristics to put it in the oblongifolia complex which seperates from all but 5 of the Amblycorypha species. However the other 4 are restricted to regions several hundred miles away from where this individual was found. I feel confident calling this Oblong-winged Katydid (Amblycorypha oblongifolia).
