Purple-Winged Grasshopper

The primary subject is identified as a grasshopper based on its robust body, large hind legs adapted for jumping, and short antennae. The specific combination of a green body, distinctive purplish-pink legs, and a prominent black patch on the side of the pronotum are key diagnostic features for the species *Sphenarium purpurascens*. The location in Mexico City further supports this identification, as this species is common in the region and is a well-known edible insect called "chapulín".
