Well-known member
I found this grasshopper nymph on a heath yesterday. Any suggestions on ID?

Thanks

Thanks for that, creaturesnapper.

I've not been able to find an image of a Meadow Grasshopper nymph that looks similar to this one in terms of colour and patterning. But having said that, there are only a handful of options, and none of the others seem to be a closer fit. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a dorsal view, which might perhaps have helped.
