Mantis religiosa
About four inches long
Hay Field
I found this one while digging up potatos, so im not quite sure if it was in the potatos or in the Hay field.
This smaller mantis is an introduced species. You can see more detailed images in the link provided above. This could be added to the Marvelous Mantids of the World mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1573...
