Grasshopper Nymph - Melanoplus

Grasshopper Nymph - Melanoplus
Gates, Gates County, North Carolina, USA
May 2, 2010
Size: 7mm
Found resting on sunflower (Helianthus annuus) leaf. Very tiny. Any takers?

Well, we can certainly get it to genus,
but species may be a bit more difficult. Eventually I hope we can learn enough to sort all of these nymphs out. This one is very young, perhaps just recently hatched.

Moved from ID Request.
