The white line is faint but indicated. It varies in intensity on both species, but the placement is slightly different. I don't remember if it is ever entirely missing on Leptysma, but it is sometimes on Stenacris. The quality and pattern of the coloring does resemble some of the smaller Katydids [i.e. thumbnail below]. I like the purple eyes, with the reddish antennae; makes it look a bit otherworldly.

Very close to Leptysma; it differs in head shorter (distinctly shorter than pronotum) with face slightly convex in profile (slightly concave in Leptysma), eyes more vertical, more slender antennae, slightly different markings, etc.

Given the location, habitat, and the pointed wingtips, I'd say this is the Cattail Toothpick Grasshopper (Leptysma marginicollis).

it is a type of toothpick grasshopper.
