Digby, the biggest bug in the world ...

This has to be one of the largest bugs in the world. It was simply massive. I can't give an exact size, as it was high up at a 7/11 near Phu Rua town, Loei at about 4 a.m. I think it is a female Giant False-Leaf Katydid, but I am not sure. Hopefully, an expert can confirm this.

Order: Orthoptera
Family: Tettigoniidae
Vernacular name: Giant false leaf katydid
Scientific name: Pseudophyllus titan (possibly)
