Ok bayucca no problem ! sometimes this vast world is so confusing for us !!
Looks not bad. I actually thought about some kind of flower mantis, but obviously on the wrong track...
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/13991315 ..... is this and mine are same or not ???
Yes, please, do that, I am not so into Mantis ;-)... I just know some Stagmomantis with these white spots from South America.
Thanks Bayucca ! I m also searching the scientific name !!
Stagmomantis sp.??? Just a hint, not sure... http://indiabiodiversity.org/observation/show/273195
