Having a garden has led me to insect photography, mostly praying mantises, because there they are in the pokeweed and around.

Hi to all. I'm interested in mantis identification and science, particularly for the Carolina mantis and perhaps another. That's the thing. I'm not sure. Is there a book just on ID? Many thanks. I'll enjoy exploring, esp. the gallery.
