Description: A leaf-shaped grasshopper (Goniaea sp.) in Western Australia. With the overall appearance of a dead leaf (shape, colour, and often static behaviour), it is aptly suited for life as an insect in the Australian bush. The species of Subtribe Goniaeina are characterised by their appearance as either a dry Eucalyptus leaf (eg. the specimen above) or as an Acacia leaf.
