Mantidae, Liturgusa sp.. Very common in Costa Rica, however, also very variable and nobody wants to get down to species level. http://www.flickr.com/photos/10320508@N06/3094285414 http://mongabay.org/images/honduras/fauna/insects/Mantis_02.gif http://www.flickr.com/photos/80125969@N00/4007316352 http://www.flickr.com/photos/11014423@N07/6355785647 http://www.flickr.com/photos/63848257@N06/6896806159 http://www.flickr.com/photos/artour_a/2072028949/in/set-72157603361916206
