Pterophylla camellifolia, the Common true katydid (nymph);
Volusia county, Florida (07 May 2014).
This is an extremely tiny Common true katydid nymph; as an adult, it’ll look quite different from what you see here. Of note, I simply could not identify this one myself. It took some brain-bursting, crowd-sourcing, power-action through a variety of online discourse communities to whittle this identification down, but the consensus was ultimately clear: The Common true katydid.
