@Jason Alexander. Iya sangat sulit, untuk semua foto dari gunung salak saya di pandu oleh pemandu dari purwokerto yg kebetulan siswa entomologist
Mungkin tanpanya saya g bisa nemu orchid mantis liar dari alam habitatnya.
Saya nyari yg ginian ga pernah nemu.. Kerenn"! :)
Francisco, thank you , that was my lucky day , spotted him in wild life of salak mount,, they were rarely seen . .
Kostas , thank you,,, it has incredible mimic.. they're commonly white in colour, but some of them are pink and yellow
Incredible mantis !!!
Amazing! At first glance I thought it was a flower. Thank you for sharing!
