Yes, I need to say that i'm a lucky man, my wife likes a lot our night walks. And she's so better to find the insects ! Hysteresis, mosquito is really annoying, sometimes after half an our we need to come back cause mosquitos are too aggressive !

My wife and i go often in the forest during the night. We see snakes, frogs, phasmids, spiders, and sometimes mantids,😁 For the adults , you need to know that each species or each genus has his own behaviour 😉

Hi, @Little MantisYes i've found it in France, but in French Guiana, so....between Brazil and Suriname. You can come here for vacation, but you will need a plane :) ! @AristalochiaYes, our field work helps a bit, but it still very difficult to find the species. And all species are not found...

Sometimes I have chance and I found nice species ;)

Hello ! Does anybody keeps their mantids in outside terrariums ? I live in a place where it's during all year 24 to 34 degrees celcius. So, all my mantids (that i found in the wild) are housed outdoor. But i don't know if somebody have tried it, and how he has... If somebody has ideas...

Thanks everybody ! I have to say that it's a really interesting period of my life, to live here... But you have to know, when you walk into the forest for like 4/5 hours, you see maybe one or two mantis, it's very difficult. But I go a lot into the forest, so now, i've found like 8 species....:)

Thanks for the Welcome. I try to put here some pictures of the Liturgusa sp. that i've found. They are really difficult to keep, i have had 2 deads on my 8 mantids since i've them. One thing was good, as you see on the pictures below...one small nice ooth. @River Dane, yes, we have Choeradodis...

Hi guys In fact, I know the plants where they where. Therefore, I leaned towards the plant, and I looked at if I saw an abdomen. Unfortunately, it was not frankly easy... thus one must be armed with patience. The young mantids hide in the foliage, but the adults are on the top of the plant...
