Thanks to Laughing Squid and Nature And More (and one David Weiller), here's an absolutely beautiful video of an absolutely beautiful creature, the Lichen Katydid.
The Lichen Katydid, Markia hystrix (Orthoptera - Tettigoniidae) ...has one of the most incredible camouflages of all. It resembles the pale greenish-white lichens on which it lives in rainforest treetops. Not only does the color match the lichens, but the body and legs have a bizarre assortment of spines and points...
Lichen Katydid, Costa Rica, Cartago Province. For more, please visit http://www.davidweiller.com or subscribe to this youtube channel. ----------------- Très rare nymphe d'orthoptère incroyablement camouflée en lichen.
