Large, very well camouflaged and with an impressive display when disturbed. Possibly a Sathrophyllia, Pseudophyllinae
1200 mt tropical forest
this is not mimetism is camouflage. An insect that has evolved to mimic another organism, always looks like that organism, independent of the environment in which it is, is what I know
Fascinating specimen and great capture!
Excellent mimetism. Maybe you can add it to this mission:http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8015...
Great camouflage!
