Amazing Katydid

This Katydid I once found right next to my house. It has spikes on it to protect itself. This katydid is light green and black and this is the first time I have ever found a Katydid like this. At the bottom is a picture of me holding the Katydid.


Field Note: This is a Lichen Katydid. The Lichen Katydid feeds ont eh tangled beard lichen in the dripping American rain forest. You can read more about it at: Rain Forest of the World
