  1. fantastic detailed image of a very beautiful grasshopper. Love his colours! Posted 9 years ago
  2. Great shot, but just a few things for advise:
    There is no need to use hashtags, simply separate each tag with a comma.
    Please remember to either Geotag or set the country on your photo, this especially makes identification easier.
    You requested a new species but this one was already on Wiki which I believe is the right one. If it is not, then please post any links to photos or other information that would make it a little easier to create a new species if necessary.
    Thank you for posting your lovely photo and welcome to Jungle Dragon!
    I have made a few changes to your entry so you can see how it should look.
