I don't know what species that is but it is not Polyspilota aeruginosa. May be mislabeled or misidentified, but I have never seen that species. I'd suspect it is one of the Polyspilota other than aeruginosa since it is a marbled mantis.

Um... I've said it before but... I don't think this is Polyspilota aeruginosa. I hate to be repeatedly conflicting but that mantid's wings are not even marbled.Urs will end up like my
Mitt NOMney looks just like that! Fat too!Expect more great colors from this cool species.
