Young Meconema thalassinum(?), Heesch, Netherlands Found in our garden last July. I'm quite horrible with identifying crickets and katydids, yet the Netherlands does not have a lot of species. I've excluded several of them based on distribution and appearance. This seems the most likely candidate to me.
