Praying mantis
Welcome to Project Noah, Joe! BudShinall has provided a Wikipedia link to the basics of praying mantids, so you can now go ahead and fill in some of this spotting's blanks. Since your mantis is still a nymph and most likely unidentifiable at this size, you can go ahead and put the praying mantis order, which is Mantodea, in the "scientific name" box. Then, tell us a little about the habitat where you found it and any notes about the experience. It's great to have you here!
