Angular winged katydids are found in temperate and arid regions of the southern United States. They have chewing mouthparts and long slender antennae, and are light green in color. Adult katydids have two pairs of wings that are leaf-like in color and shape. During mating, a spermatophore is transferred from the male to the female's genital opening. Within 15-20 minutes, the sperm is moved into the female's body.
Eggs are tan and glued to the underside of leaves.
It takes two to three months for the eggs to hatch. The only differences are that they are very small and lack wings. Life Cycle Young katydids reach their adult stage in three to four months. Since they have such a short lifespan, most katydids' social behavior involves courtship and mating. Predators include birds and some amphibians.
