tiny grasshopper in backyard

I am fairly certain this is Mexican Pygmy Grasshopper (Paratettix mexicanus) which I have had ID'd on BG and elsewhere from this same location in previous years. I have posted this image on BG as well for confirmation: http://bugguide.net/node/view/1046445 This is a tiny grasshopper, about 1 CM (.4 inches) long.

This was a tiny individual, barely measuring 10 or 11 mm total length. Photographed on a limestone rock in a dry creek bed. It matches other individuals which I've identified as *aztecus*.

While documenting the results of a human-caused fire in the Jewel of the Creek, I ran across these aquatic grasshoppers. They were very variable in shape and markings. These have eyes that are divided along the horizontal plane, presumably to allow for above-water and underwater vision.
