Hi Nicholas, nice find! It's a bit hard to tell but this looks very similar to a Chinese Mantid, Tenodera sinensis. Here is a link that has more pictures and information on the Chinese Mantid. If you think this is the correct species, please update your spotting! http://bugguide.net/node/view/10098 This spotting could be added to the Marvelous Mantids of the North East mission: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/15738247
