24. Phyllomimus sp. View in CoL Fig. 17B
Remarks.-
This species was found on the understory leaves, and can frequently be heard calling. Upon approaching the katydid, it flattened its body and extended its tegmina to camouflage against the background of the leaf. Patterns on the tegmina resemble epiphylls that were found commonly on the leaves of the trees in the forest around KBFSC (notice the leaf of Fig. 17B).
