Chondroderella borneensis

A beautiful Leaf mimic Katydids! First time seeing this species Lucky me Katydids fall prey to many predators so most are camouflaged to blend with the leaves they feed on.

Katydids have incomplete metamorphosis. The nymph that hatches from an egg looks a lot like an adult, except that it doesn't have wings. As they grow, katydids shed their exoskeletons (this is called molting). In their last molt, they get wings and they become adults. After that they stop growing and don't molt any more.
