I've learned a lot in the past 10 years.....
...including this should have been placed under O. celerinictus. It is out of range for O. argentinus, and the coloring matches for O. celerinictus (pale green, pale eyes, whitish strips down sides, lack of black).

The antennal markings for these two species are very similar.

Wow....just found this photo today
...the first Tree Cricket photo ever posted on BugGuide, and it's posing a challenge to ID. The antennal markings point to either Black-horned or Prairie. It was taken in north central Georgia...where SINA range maps do not show Black-horned nor Prairie. (Although there is one dot on the western state line for Prairie.) There is no dusky or black markings on the pronotum -- so suggests Prairie. I'm going to put this in O. argentinus for now -- unless proven to be Black-horned in the future. Note to Troy: Can you possibly check the same area next year for these Tree Crickets?
