Stagmomantis carolina
ah! you're right. african mantis probably wouldnt be found here in ga. oops, ill fix it. thanks
Great find! Sphodromantis viridis (or the African Mantis) is not known to occur in North America. This looks like a lovely native species, an adult female Carolina Mantis.
This would be a nice addition to the global Mantid mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1573...
