Description
Heeey, who's such a cute and little here?
This is the nymph of Hierodula tenuidentata (Saussure, 1869), aka Giant Asian Praying mantis. Previously I determined it as the nymph of Mantis religiosa (Linneus, 1758), or Praying European mantis, but later I got to consider it as Hierodula tenuidentata due to a stockier build and a pulled-up abdomen, which is not at all typical for Mantis religiosa.
So, this male baby was about 2 cm or less an inch long. And it's gonna become about 6–10 cm or 2–3" when it gets adult or imago.
Thanks for posing for me, lil mantis!
