Scudderia is a genus of katydids in the subfamily Phaneropterinae.[2] They are sometimes called bush katydids and are 30–38 mm in length.[3] Their range is most of North America, northernmost being in Southern Canada. They are herbivores, with nymphs feeding primarily on flowers and adults preferring woody deciduous plants.[4]
