Brunneria gracilis
At first I thought this was a stick insect ("walking stick"), but it turned out to be a stick mantis. It's about 15 cm in length. Spotted in Punta del Este, Maldonado, Uruguay.

Thanks AndréAlves for the identification, and thanks for the invite ForestDragon.
Beautiful! This would be a nice addition to the Marvelous Mantids of the World mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1573...
