leaf-mimic katydid

{{Short description|Common name for several species of cricket-like animal}}

There are many insects in the family Tettigoniidae (bush crickets or katydids) which are mimics of leaves.{{cite journal |title=Intraspecific color polymorphism in leaf-mimicking katydids (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Pseudophyllinae: Pterochrozini) |author=James L. Castner & David A. Nickle |journal=Journal of Orthoptera Research |volume=4 |issue=4 |year=1995 |pages=99–103 |doi=10.2307/3503464 |jstor=3503464}}

This type of camouflage occurs in several subfamilies, among others including:

• Pterochrozinae[http://orthoptera.speciesfile.org/Common/basic/Taxa.aspx?TaxonNameID=1218120 Orthoptera species file (retrieved 13 January 2018)]
• Phaneropterinae
• Pseudophyllinae

Other unrelated insects adopting a similar camouflage strategy include the leaf insects.
