What insect is this? Expert help required!

[TomandJerry]

I got no idea

I thought at first glance it was a speckled bush cricket, maybe a juvenile....but pictures a bit fuzzy

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

If this is a caption competition it's a pretty poor effort

Green frog hopper?

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Green frog hopper?

That's a good call, just without the cuckoo spit. How big was the insect OP?

 

[happypig]

It's a locust*. We're DOOMED.




*Might not be a locust.

 

[sir albion]

Shield bug?

 

[Ludensian Gull]

Pictures a bit fuzzy but think it's probably a froghopper

 

[TomandJerry]

That's a good call, just without the cuckoo spit. How big was the insect OP?

I'd say between 10 and 20mm

[Grombleton]

It's not a Pokemon, i'm sure of that.

 

[Diablo]

Green Grasshopper.

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

Looks to be a good shout..

Cricket

A 20mm aphid! Scary!

 

[Coldeanseagull]

A 20mm aphid! Scary!

A 20mm frog hopper is quite impressive as well. I'll stick with my first guess

 

[albionite]

Need sheldon and Howard to decide

 

[vegster]

Could be a Thrip... not sure which one.
