I should have a line on them as well as the others. Waiting to her back from the guy though. I hear tree trunks at night is the key.

 
One week!! If you're near Raleigh, NC please come visit. I'll be in the Nature Resource Center. I have quite a display this year. Ooths, live and preserved mantids, books, magazines, posters, etc.

 
I had a few native things from my bugfest I hoped would make it for yours but they've all gone the way of the doornail. The only thing I have of any possible use are a few invertebrate magazines with mantids on the cover but you may already have those.

I was going to ask you. I thought I had several, but the only one I have contains the article by Ray Dryer on R. stalli. I'll gladly take the others. Let me know the details. Gotta have them before Friday this week. Thanks.

i need info on rhombo stali

mine r almost all female and growin rapidly, sometimes molting every 5 days

when the ooth's nymphs grow up and reproduce i'll be sure to get an ooth or 2 out to u

i have an old hatched cali ooth if u want it...

 
I could have used the cali ooth. the ooth display is already done though. I'd have to tear it all apart to add another one.

 
I dug out Vol. 6, 4 and Vol. 8, 2 and came across a few X-nism mantis prints. I'll get them out first class today.

 
Is there a bugfest 2014?

or do we start a new thread?
