Best Answer

The Snakeweed Grasshopper is the common name of Hesperotettix viridis.

Specifically, the common name honors the grasshopper's host plant and therefore food source. Snakewood (Gutierreziaspp) is a plant characteristic of the southwestern United States of America. The American Southwest is also the grasshopper's native habitat. The orange splashes of coloring on the grasshopper warn other wildlife - such as area livestock - that both the insect and the food source are not to be eaten.
