Phidippus sp female,probably Phidippus putnami.Very nice one.

Very cute mantis.I wish I had hem.

To me this myth saying that inbreeding mantis is bad comes from people who failed in breeding some species for more than a few générations.They are usually like"oh I believe it was bad blood blablabla....")In fact I never see any real evidence proving it is bad.Like Ntsees wrote,species can be...

First picture shows a male Phidippus johnsoni.Nice Jumper!

Here is the link where I found the name Callimantis:http://www.entnemdept.ufl.edu/choate/mantid_key2_03.pdf

I just read you can find adults in Florida from june to september .Was also called Callimantis floridana scudder.

Yersiniops sp Tenodera sp Mantis religiosa Stagmomantis sp Gonatista grisea Brunneria borealis Theosprotia graminis Litaneutria sp Phyllovates sp Pseudovates sp Iris oratoria Oligonicella scudderi Find the missing ones! :cowboy:

A picture of that butchery would be cool.

Tenodera sinensis.

Looks like Platycryptus female.But I need to see its face to be sure. Phidippus audax adult females are all black so for sure it is not a P. audax.Still nice though.

Hello everyone I just want to know what you guys think about killing mantises in the purpose to sell them for pinning? Someone from Malaysia is selling massive amount of dead/dried mantises.I usually do not pay much attention as I can understand some collector want to ornate their walls with...

You did not miss much.Tenodera+Mantis religiosa would give nothing.Have you read the whole thread?

I am looking for spiders from USA of any kind. Nephilidae Oxyopidae Salticidae Gasteracantha Any kind of True Spiders. I can buy or swap for mantis ooths or nymphs. Thanks for looking! Nico

What you suggest Agent A seems good but in that case it is going to take a while before they reach adulthood.I am planning to diapause them for a month max see what happens.Anyway I have like 100 nymphs so i will try different things.

No,they do not diapause at subadult in Europe,but around L4.You cannot grow them in South california all time as they need diapausing.But that may work in San Franciso area. They can frost.Temp in the South of France can go below 0°C Its getting cold from november to April.Dont know about light...

I put some in the fridge and they survived.They are not even lethargic because of the cold,i am really surprised.

Uloborus sp. Cribellate Orb Weaver.

Hehe.Indeed you can get some ooths from your Aussie shops and send them to us. :cowboy: Please contact me.I have lots of mantis species to swap for if interested.
