Field Notes

Description:

Not sure if this is a mantis case or a snail or some other form of egg sac? Everything was so unfamiliar on the other side of the planet.

Habitat:

chiang mai thialand.

Notes:

not sure what variety of mantid I found, ootheca appears similar to some wood mantis varieties, but I'm unfamiliar with asiatic varieties and haven't been able to pin down a species. Linking Tenodera sinensis wiki as a possibility.
