Exploring Belize

[guapoalto049]

Spent a week in BZ for vacation and did some bug hunting while there. It rained on some of my night hikes but found some neat stuff! Here's a sample, any questions about the pics, the trip itself, or the subjects just ask! 






pseudo-Pseudacanthops ?

The dorsal photo of the female Stagmomantis (11th photo down from the top), can you provide date and location of capture?

I don't know the Stagmomantis genus well, but it's very similar to an S. carolina.  Collected along the hummingbird highway roadside in the brush, 1 miles southeast of the Blue Hole National Park visitor center on Feb 7.

The other one has a stockier build than a Stagmomantis, I've seen pictures but I can't recall the genus right now.

Are you compiling species logs? I have many others if needed

Yes, I'm compiling data for future works concerning Central American mantis diversity in addition to other global regions.  Any logs or collection data that you have would be useful and most appreciated.
