Stick Grasshopper (family Proscopiidae)
Stick Grasshopper (family Proscopiidae). Looking much like a typical walking stick (Phasmida), these grasshoppers exploit a similar defense strategy but with the added bonus that they can jump away from a predator if needed. Sumaco Napo-Galeras National Park, Ecuador.
