Tenodera sinensis
we know it is a praying mantis, but not sure specifically which kind.
one of many visitors on our back door. :)
I believe this is a Chinese Mantid. You can just see the bright green edge of the wing with the brown on the back. The slender body would indicate that this is an adult male.
This would be a great addition to the Marvelous Mantids of the North East mission:
