Bigger and more patterned than the others I've seen but wondering if just a more mature Keyacris.

Probably still Keyacris. The antennae are blocked in the picture. If it is a Heide it should have more than 11 segments. Check the pictures of Heide on SCCNM and SHNM.

Sorry Roger there should be 4 or 5 photos but they didn't load. Don't think I can count the segments because of the pattern but probably a keyacris.
