Thanks , yeah . I know it's a bush cricket ( what they call a katydid in the US ) . Therefore from Tettigoniidae . But could do with narrowing it down further . Thanks though x

Hello folks Found this bush cricket in a lightly forested area of Buenos Aires Province in Argentina . Basking in the sun during the day . I'd say it's body is about 1.5 inches long . But it's antennae are HUGE . Longer than my forearm and hand ! Just to be able to narrow it down to a genus would be awesome ! Thanks x Attachments:

I never noticed that =0o Blimey . A bit of an insect morgue then =0) Joke . Don't take it personally =0) Well I'll see how dead thing collectors are at identifying this bush cricket . Pic coming up in " identify this bug section " I could realy do with some help for just the genus . Let alone the species . Help appreciated x

Thought I'd introduce my humble self . Hello . I'm Kev . The lover of animals most people find strange
I'm from the UK . But I've moved to Argentina . And blimey have I been thrown into a mad new world of bugs ! =0)
I need help . And thought some of you folk maybe able to provide . So here I am . An information sucking bug =0)
Best wishes to you all x x x
One note . . . I've noticed a lot of people seeking dead things on here . Seems weird to me . Don't ask me to provide dead things . unless they died naturally =0) I'm an insect lover not an insect capitalist =0) x

I think that's a small blue . A butterfly from Europe . I used to live in the UK and I feel quite confident on the ID . Just a little thought , why would you post a pic you happened to see on the net without crediting the photographer ? x
