Mantis Book

[ramantis]

Hello All-

I've got a copy of "Praying Mantis, Keeping Aliens" & "The Mantids",

as well as another half dozen books about them I found on Ebay,

but, has anyone out there ever seen/heard of a book that has photos

of the vast majority of the 2000 or so species?

no such book exists. in fact, there are many species that are yet to be discovered. however, there is a good site that has a good sized database of about 200 species.

I don't really think there is enough information, even photos to publish material on 2000 species.

As Wuwu said, terra typica is one of the largest mantid databases online, and there are only 200 odd species!

haha, I'd buy that book!
