Hi Sean. Welcome to Project Noah! This is a very nice spotting of a Chinese Mantid, Tenodera sinensis sinensis. There is no need for you to make an ID suggestion for your own spotting. That section is for others to make suggestions for you! If you don't know the Genus or Species of your organism it is best to leave that area blank and tick the box that asks for help with an ID (it's just under the Common Name section). You can put Family and Subfamily, etc. in the description section. Since you are new to PN, it would be a good idea to read through the FAQ page for general info on posting here as well as some of the other features available: http://www.projectnoah.org/faq Lastly, I think this would be a wonderful addition to the Marvelous Mantids of the North East mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/15738247 I hope you enjoy it here! Any questions, feel free to stop into the chats or email us.
