Phaneropterinae (Subfamily)

Leaf katydids, subfamily Phaneropterinae, are known for their leaf-like camouflage, long antennae, and arboreal habitat, often found on trees and shrubs. They typically have green or brown coloring to blend in, though some species mimic wasps, and their eggs are usually laid in rows on twigs or inserted into leaves rather than in the earth. These katydids are primarily herbivores, feeding on leaves and twigs, and their rear legs are adapted for jumping.
