To add this spotting to the mission, just click on the link in my previous comment (the bottom link). That will bring you to the mission page. Click "Join this mission" button, then edit your spotting. There should be a drop-down list for missions on the right hand side of the page. Click on the mission from that list and Save Changes.

This little fella is a very young one. He only measures out at about 1-1/2 to 2 inches. How do I add this the the global Mantis mission.

Great find! It's hard to say which species this is, though, with those bulbous eyes I am leaning towards a Carolina Mantis (Stagmomantis carolina). Do you have any other views of this cutie? Here is a link to the Bug Guide page for S. carolina: http://bugguide.net/node/view/4821

Please consider adding this to the global Mantis mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/1573...
