User's notes
This is a small grasshopper which is predominantly grey and tan. The grey of the short wings, thorax and head merges into shades of fawn on the sides, and the upper dorsal surface. The upper rear legs are tan, and tipped in black at the joint with their next lower section. The feet appear dark grey which merges into shades of tan then fawns closest to the body. The antennae, too, appear fawn close to the head, and gradually merge through darker shades, becoming tan towards their ends.
