Mantid

Thank you Teresia and Mr Goldfish. I have added the Sub. fam. to the spotting.

Thank you for the ID suggestion brycezimmerman. But I have not managed to find any records of the Tenodera sinensis in the area for the spotting. Thank you for all the inspiring comments Thomas, Bhagya and Christine :)

Thanks a lot Mac, Dilan and ForestDragon. I am sorry to say that I dont have any dorsum photos, and I assume that will make it very hard to ID. Shame! I have to remember this for next time a mantid comes in my way! DrNamgya, I did not really think about that until you wrote it, but you are right, it is exactly the same shade :)
