Odontomantis planiceps
I saw this little "ant" scurrying about an ants nest only to realize after I had photographed it that it was actually a Mantis mimicking an Ant.

Thank you, this matches the little fellow perfectly.
I agree. I think it looks very similar to this spotting: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/105...
You could add it to the ant mimics mission and maybe get some more help http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/3803...
Hi Reza Hashemizadeh,
This little guy is very alike to praying mantis nymph of Odontomantis genus.
