What size is it? Bigger than ours, I suppose.

picture: Tetrigidae_800_s.JPGIn the Natal Museum, I saw a number of tetrigids, mostly unidentified.By eye, about a dozen and a half species, in snovnom small and monotonous, although there is a rather exotic appearance. On the Hendrik Devriese website http://www.sprinkhaan.be 34 genera and about 100 species are listed for the whole of Africa. The view in the photo is small, about 7-8 mm. All the tetrigids that I caught myself, left in Natal, maybe for nothing...
I found a good amateur photo album of South African right-winged birds

In appearance, most likely a larva of one of the last instars, but 100% female. I dare to assume that the subfamily Tetriginae (species of this subfamily also live in Russia).
