I'd say a Katydid... maybe Caedicia simplex (Common Garden Katydid) ?

I have suggested this mole cricket is Gryllotalpa australis (Rentz p357). It is not nitidula because its pronota is not smooth shiny and dark, leaving australis or coarctata. I believe its australis because of how dark the tegmina are.
