Decimiana bolivari threat pose

The new generation of D. bolvari appear to be very defensive.....

The male D. bollivari appear to be much larger than the Acanthops sp.

I love the texture on that species, looks kind of moldy or something.

my female Rhombodera Longas put on a display as well and worry that one of my females will want to chomp my finger off!

Thanks all!

Here is a short clip of the same female recorded while i was taking pictures of her defensive pose, she just wouldn't calm down....gez. Sorry the clip is blurry (She wouldn't stay still.... so as my shaky hand)

Did u change your hairdo or something Yen? My dog barks at us if we put on a hat or sunglasses, maybe she does not reconize you

Awesome vid Yen. I like how they rock back and forth.

Dang! Great video! What did you do to her?!?! lol

 

[mantid_mama]

She is so cute!! It cracks me up that something so small thinks they're SO big. Yeah, you're real scary lil' girl. NOT.
