Description

Three specimens collected in the porch during the night of September 5th. I collected another specimen in the porch earlier in the day (https://inaturalist.nz/observations/239919763) and another one (the first I have ever found) on September 4th (https://inaturalist.nz/observations/239773130). The final photo shows all 5 specimens (so not the same specimen returning to be re-photographed).

Seems unconcerned about New Zealand Nursery Web Spider! Alive but probably near comatose with the cold. Maybe spider did not recognize it as prey? May be same Green Carpet Owlet as yesterday?

Could be a garden cricket- although it’s quite big. Looks like a katydid but black.
