Conocephalus strictus
The straight-lanced meadow katydid is large and robust for a Conocephalus, ranging from 13 to 30 mm. It is green and brown in color and has short tegmina (forewings). The short-winged form is 13–22 mm, while the long-winged form is 21–30 mm. Males have long cerci which are tapered beyond the tooth and flattened in their final third, and the ability to bend their bodies at extreme angles. Females have a straight ovipositor which exceeds body length. The species was named for the distinct ovipositor of the female.
