The Conehead Katydid!
After finding that Common True Katydid the other day we came upon a member of the Neoconocephalus genus of Katydids.
The Neoconocephalus genus of Katydids are the ones commonly referred to as “Conehead” Katydids. You can see the elongated head and black tip in the photo above. You may also notice the long ovipositor protruding from the rear of the Katydid. This is the organ that they use to deposit eggs. Because of the shape of this organ on some species, they are commonly called “sword bearing.”
Eventually this beautiful creature would up as chicken food. (Circle of life…) At least I captured some great photos of it first. Enjoy!
Cute face, huh?
