Cryptic mantis

Took this little lady out for a photoshoot. She's camera shy.

Walking in a minefield, she made it out alive.

Wow she's neat! Love those green leafy wings!

I've finally lost my last mantis, the big female violin made it 10 months. I may start up with mantids again next year, we shall see.

Sweet! I've never seen that particular type before. What species is it?
