BEAUTIFUL phasmids and snakes. Love the orangutans, especially the baby!!! :wub: Cool Deroplatys species, too. Oh and my favorite one of the phasmids is the Phyllium! LOVE the shades of green on that one and on the bright green stick insect w/ blue knees! :tt1:

If you want there are some more photos of our expeditions. You can see there few mantis species also. In free time I will try to make some folder with all mantis species which I took a photo in nature.

The photos are with names...

They are two species of the Madagascan genus Brancsikia.

I have bred these several years ago. Very difficult.

yeah looked them up thought they were Deroplatys but than i came across the genus Brancsikia.

 
Holy ######! This is so incredibly cool! I want to do something like this SO BAD. I don't care if I have to deal with 100 million mosquitoes or leeches or bad hygiene or anything else. Is this your actual JOB?? What are the requirements? Is being a Bio major the right way to go? How athletic do I need to be? I noticed it's all men (and usually all men for these types of things) am I s.o.l as a chick? What path in life lead you to where you are now (exploring the rainforest)?

Yeah, how is it you go on these expeditions?

Is it a job or just a holiday?

If it is a job what is the purpose and what do you actually do there?

BTW this is one of the most stunning phasmids i have ever seen.
