Adult Wingless Grasshopper (Phaulacridium vittatum)

I think this is the Wingless Grasshopper, Happy to be corrected if I am wrong.

Apparently, the majority of the adults have short, undeveloped wings. However There are a small number of the Grasshoppers that have functional wings that are capable of considerable wind-assisted flight.

interesting about the wingless ones and what a great capture! I thought they all had wings, but those do look short
