This marvelously colorful display belongs to a Dead-Leaf Peacock Katydid species! (𝘖𝘮𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘰𝘱𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘢 𝘴𝘱.)
This genus is endemic to the Atlantic Rainforest biome, located in South-Eastern Brazil. Just like some moths and mantids, these katydids are neatly camouflaged and perfectly blend in to their surroundings with their dead leaf appearance, but if faced with a predator, they put out a dazzling and colorful display! As soon as I approached it and picked it up, it flashed it's conspicuous underwings to try and scare me off. I dare say it's one of the most spectacular threat displays I have ever witnessed!
