Certainly a colorful individual - nice shots!
Nice shot of one of my favorite creatures.
What an angle of capture :)
Hello again Benno. 'Location' and 'Habitat' is for the individual specimen. Please move the location for this 'home bred' insect to Alpen, Germany. Thank you very much.
As you say, "Austr-alien" :-)
Thanks for your reply Benno! Let me clarify my question: you indicate these are home-bred insects, yet the pin is located in a desert part of Queensland, actually outside of rainforest areas. To clarify further, on Project Noah we ask that the indicated location is where the spotting was made, not where the species would be found in its native distribution. I hope this makes sense.
The location is correct, because H. majuscula is common in complete South east asia and also in the tropical aereas of australia.
Really nice.
Oh my gosh that last pic is awesome.
Fantastic Benno! Is the location for these correct?
So pretty !!! Cool spotting !!
Wow thanks Benno; I didn't know we had these. The colours are excellent.
Thx, Jason :)
Wow! I love your mantis spottings! Unique!
