Mantids are what got me interested science way back when I was a kid. And that continued when I first joined this forum as a freshman in HS. Although I'm now primarily studying black and brown widows, I'm happy to have this paper out. Hope you enjoy! https://authors.elsevier.com/a/1XB1~1LenM8yHw

Hi, as the title says, I'm looking for an adult pair or two. I'm not picky on the species however I'm not interested in the cryptic (read flower mantids, gongys, etc.) species. So anyone with Hierodula, Sphodromantis, budwings, rhombodera, tenodera, etc., please don't hesitate to pm me or email...

I purchased quite a few S. limbata nymphs from Kermit. Not only did he knock the price down upon asking, but he added a few more nymphs. He was excellent in communicating, provided shipping number, actually tracked the package himself, and the packaging was professional. Would definitely do...

I purchased a S. limbata ooth from rBird and it was a very smooth process. Fast communication, sent tracking info, neatly packed. Now just waiting for them to hatch! Would definitely do business again. 

Hi everyone, I'm very much interested in obtaining some S. limbata for some preliminary trials I intend to run looking at their behavior (first summer of gradschool...yay). So essentially, I'm looking to purchase ooths but any pair at any life stage will do. Basically, I need these guys and a...

Hey everyone, Since I've been a part of this forum for quite a while now, I just wanted to let everyone here know that Project Monark, a transmedia entertainment company that I'm a lead on, has launched our first IP, God's Calamity. Transmedia is essentially telling a cohesive story using...

Hi everyone! I'll keep this relatively short, but I just wanted to share with you all that I'll be graduating with a BS in entomology from Cornell in May :) :smarty: aaaaaand I've just accepted an admissions offer to the Animal Behavior Grad Group for a PhD at UC Davis!!! I'm excited to come...

Please pm me if you have fertile ooths of either or both species. Thanks a lot

Hi, interested in a pair of any of the three mantids listed above. Preferably adults but will take nymphs in the later stages of development. Message me please, and if you have some other species that doesn't require a lot of care and fit the "requirements" above, don't hesitate to message me.

Hello. My lab has about 200 Mexican red rump babies for sale. They've molted about three or four times already and can take small crickets, flies, and small roaches. Cost is $5 per tarantula or $10 for 5 (can sell more for a cheaper cost, you can tell we're trying to get rid of these). They...

Hi everyone, I just made it back to the states a couple of days ago from studying abroad/researching in Singapore. As such, it's right back into the fray for me. I wanted to put out this request as early as possible but didn't really have the time so here it goes. I'm conducting research this...

Hi all, Long time no hear. So I've spent a couple of months so far in Singapore and I love it! I've been doing some collecting (got a permit :) ) and have come across some amazing creatures. However, I'll cut to the chase and show you the (crappy) pics I've taken of some mantids and hope...

Hi all, I'll be traveling to Singapore in 12 days for study abroad for an academic year. I was wondering if any one had any information on what species of mantids can be found there but more importantly when they can be found. I don't know if mantids in the tropics follow the same pattern as...
