Just figured it out
The sculpturing of the hind femora are different in the two genera.

Moved from Neotettix.

I think perhaps Neotettix - tentatively moved here
Do you have any other images of this one? It might help.

Perhaps it is a young Tettigidea armata instead.

Moved from Grasshoppers, Crickets, Katydids.
