Field Notes

Description:

Phasmid from the genus Tisamenus. They are supposed to be spiny but this particular species doesn't seems to be so.
I have recorded 11 species of this genus, Tisamenus from the Philippines. They are endemic to various parts of Philippines.
There are 18 described species under this genus, but probably there are a few more undescribed.
