One Cold Katydid - Stilpnochlora couloniana - female

One Cold Katydid - Stilpnochlora couloniana - Female
Ormond Beach, Volusia County, Florida, USA
January 7, 2014
Size: Just under 3.5"
Four images will be included for this organism. This katydid, just under 3.5" head-to-wingtip, was quite frozen from last night's arctic invasion into Florida. Our temps dropped a bit below zero, and it's been *slowly* warming up today -- but not by much. I found this katydid laying on its side on my driveway. It probably fell from a tree overhead (lots of overhead foliage). Any help pegging species would be appreciated. I'm not too sharp with katydids.
