Just caught a nymph, could anyone please identify?

Hi guys!

I just caught this cute little fella last week. He molted last Thursday, which was the coolest thing to witness! Anyway, I'm located in Davis, CA. The temperature here can get pretty hot. I'd say it's like a Mediterranean climate out here with mild winters and hot summers.

It's either Stagmomantis limbata, or Stagmomantis californica.

I'm guessing stagmomantis californica. Limbata never has that much striping on the raptorials (in my observations). If that is inaccurate please tell me!

 

[massaman]

maybe a californica

Looks just like my brown Stagmo cali, even looks like the same instar.

Limbatas actually do get stripes like that, check out one of mine...

It's a Stagmomantis limbata

 

[MantidLord]

It's S. limbata

I collected in Davis last year and found some.
