Texturally matched to the potato leaf it is on, this green grasshopper appears ‘knobbly’ all over , amplified by the minute spots of black on the body, 3 black bands around each rear upper leg, short black antennae, and black eyes & feet. I’m wondering if there is any relationship between this specimen, and those at sightings 4672681, 4672683, 4672689 &/ 4672719.
