The image is blue-shifted; this is actually a green insect.

 
Not blue shifted
Hi,
attached are my original shots. This time, the only thing I did was crop the image. No sharpening or lightening.
As you see, the images are a little under-exposed. It was a sunny day. I usually try to do this because it's easier to lighten an image slightly than to photoshop out hot spots.
On the first submission, the image was lightened to the correct amount and sharpened. No messing with colors at all..... I swear!! :o)
If it's a new subspecies, can it be called Edmondsi? ;o]
