[QUOTE="Jesse, post: 13960, member: 16"] I have unknowingly at the time bred two different [I]Sphodromantis spp.[/I] I thought they were both [I]S. lineola[/I], but the resulting offspring did not produce any fertile oothecae, even the outbred ones. Many of the offspring(which I didn't use for breeding) did not unfurl(sp?) their wings properly when they molted into adults, which I assumed at first was due to improper husbandry, until I housed the remaining individuals in much more humid conditions, and still had inconsistent results. These offspring were also quite a bit larger than their parents. I would love to get my hands on a key to this Genus! [/QUOTE]
