This leafy boi was a strange upstairs find. He stuck to my leg when I tried to set him free. I shall call him Spinach.

A katydid nymph, looking like some kind of undersea creature.

Also saw a few Tettigoniids.
Tettigonia virdissima and a young unidentified one. I put it on if you want to help!

Katydid on xanthorrhoea leaves

The very dense spray of long, thin leaves make for an interesting, if challenging location for macro. The katydid’s extravagant antennae aren’t quite as prominent as I’d hoped, but it’s a nice study in green, contrasted with silhouettes.

I almost missed seeing this guy on a Calla Lilly leaf a couple of days ago because it was such a similar colour to the leaf. I believe it's a Katydid (Caedicia simplex).

It didn't seem to like the camera (fair enough), as it moved over to the edge of the leaf, looking like it was trying to escape. Poor thing, hope I didn't scare it too much...

Just photographed this, what looks like a large locust, or katydid resting on our kitchen window, here in Melbourne Australia just after midnight.
A reasonable sized insect, but I was amazed by the length of its antennae so, in one of the photos, I have held a ruler up to it. Graduated in centimetres.
Does anybody know what this is?
Cheers.

no hadrosaur honks
are preserved in amber

the lithographic limestone
saves no pterosaur trills

the songs of sauropods
cannot be found
eroding in the wind
in the badlands of Argentina

and the cry of Ceratosuchops
will not spring forth
from cliffs of the Isle of Wight

yet sometimes
a few hyoid bones
whisper in our dreams

and from the Jiulongshan
in China
a Jurassic katydid's wings
were so well preserved
the chriping ping of their stridulation
could be recreated

Most of my () observations are nymphs of the introduced Meditteranean katydid ( nana). I have one nymph observation of our native greater anglewing ( rhombifolium). The antennae!

I hear a lot of them in the trees during the summer. I'll have to upload some recordings.
