Image of Giant Katydid

Description:

"This recently-expired katydid was found at a window of a convenience store in Chiefland, FL. The species is identified by its large size (about 7 cm here) and the two angular bends on the top side of the forewings. This is apparently about at the northern edge of its range, per the range map in Capinera et al.
