Seen in SE Massachusetts. What is it? Thanx!
CLOSED: Camoflauged Grasshopper
This is a Carolina locust/Carolina grasshopper, Dissosteira carolina (Orthoptera: Acrididae) - see http://tinyurl.com/m8a33f
You were right that this species has very different colors (you IDed this species several days ago but that one was rusty red). It's behavior was the same so I should have made the connection myself. :)
Thanks.
