Nice find! This is a female mantis from genus Stagmomantis. There are a couple of species found in California. Did you happen to get any photos of her face? Stagmomantis limbata and Stagmomantis californica can be found in your area. http://bugguide.net/node/view/4820/bgpage This would be a nice addition to the Marvelous Mantids of the World mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/15738247
