User's notes

A colourful grasshopper, and looking to be identical to that at sighting 4672747 (the photos of which are much clearer, and the descriptive comments more detailed ~ the description for this sighting is purely in terms of the differences to sighting 4672747. All other aspects of the earlier description are true for this specimen. The wings here appear a darker brown here than at 4672747. The thick patch of black laced with pale yellow markings on each side of the thorax mentioned at sighting 4672747 is not distinguishable on this specimen except perhaps photo 4. A row of spines on the mid rear leg sections is visible here, but the lack of clarity obscures any 2nd row, or their colouring.
