Glass Mantis - Red Flecked!

Well, I'm hoping it's actually red like yours, but we'll see. I'll post photos if it's different.

I always thought that the red ones tasted like snozberries. Btw I want a glass mantis so bad that I really can taste it!!!

Yes it is the Sinomantis denticulata with different color morph, not common to see red. I have also seen a darker color morph nymph. Great photos as usual.

The one that was blueish molted and is now red too. What's strange is that one is a molt or two ahead of the one that was already red. I guess it can happen at any point in development.

Thanks for these Yen. Very interesting species. Same for the Oxys. I'm blown away bow how colorful they've become.
