EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, a group of oblong-winged katydids (Amblycorypha oblongifolia) proudly display their vibrant and unusual colors against a stark black background at the Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. These oblong-winged katydids, also known as angular-winged katydids or microcentrum katydids, are native to the southern United States. However, in their natural habitats, anything but green is usually a death sentence, as these colors make them easy targets for predators. The Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium has been a pioneer in breeding these color variants for display in the zoo community. This studio shot showcases the katydids' intricate details and unique features, with their angular wings and long, slender bodies. The colorful katydids in this image come in various hues, including orange, pink, and yellow, adding a pop of color to the monochromatic backdrop. This close-up portrait highlights the katydids' vibrant and textured exoskeletons, which are often overlooked in their natural environments. The side view of these fascinating insects reveals their intricate wing structures and elongated legs, which allow them to jump great distances. The use of a black background emphasizes the katydids' colors and makes them the focal point of the image. Overall, this photograph captures the beauty and uniqueness of these captive oblong-winged katydids, showcasing their captivating colors and intricate details.
