Tisamenus fratercula
Saw lots of this Spiny Stick Insect including during day time. The pictures shows a Female seen during the day time. This genus, Tisamenus has a distinct feature, with '2 false eyes' on their back which make them looks like they have a 'face' on their body. This feature is more pronounced in the Females than the Males.
Tropical forest with high humidity, they tend to like the areas nearer the river
Small size Phasmid, just around 5cm in size.
