Paolo, really? The one I found was quite big... though I've gone back and had a look at my spotting and it's very different to this one: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/602... So you're right, not H. patelifera! :D
In English, this is called a "praying mantis" :) I found a big praying mantis when I was in Indonesia, which as an Asian giant mantis, Hierodula patelifera. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierodula_p... It's possible that this is what your spotting is! Have a look :)
