Chinese is correct.

You are probably right, Jerry. I know I have seen the Chinese before. I was confusing the wing casing with the abdomen here. This Mantid was pretty large, ~5".
I will update it as Chinese tentatively and maybe someone else will weigh in.

Thanks again. :)

Looks like it is a possibility. How does one differentiate the two?
