I will say Stripe-winged and wait for more knowledgeable folks to confirm. I'm only going by what looks like a white marking near the wingtip in the first pic.

That would appear to be a Common Green Grasshopper.
Stripe-winged can be eliminated on range alone, but also on the lack of the enlarged central cells of the forewing. Stuart |
