An insect of very quiet behavior. Their only form of defense at first is hiding behind the leaves where he likes to stay.
This specimen was found in the Brazil's interior, state of Minas Gerais, an area dominated by coffee production where there are very few remnants of the its original rainforest.
One of the most exotic and diverse insects that I know. There are so many similar species that I do not know if it would be possible to identify this just for this photo.
Thank you so much, my friends!! :) I greatly appreciate it, but... I'm still a little confused with all this movement. It's a lot of information for 3 days only... lol Thank you, really!
This is the most beautiful bug I ever saw. I never knew that insects could be so beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing. And, congratulations.
Welcome to the community Leonardo, & congrats, your fabulously flamboyant looking leaf footed bug has earned you spotting of the day!
