A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Mantodea
This praying mantis has been observed on the outside wall of a café on Kangaroo Island, Australia. I am estimating it to be about 10 cm long.
I have not been able to find out the specific type of praying mantis...
Great find! This would be a wonderful addition to the Marvelous Mantids of the World mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1573...
