Well, I'm going on a camping trip soon and I decided to sell all of my excess mantids except for what I have set aside for breeding purposes.
Tropidomantis, tenera
An absolutely lovely and beautiful species from Singapore (partially transparent and polkadotted!) I'm selling ones that are L5-L6 It only takes them about 8 weeks to become adults!
Here are some pics (not mine), just scroll all the way down, they are on the bottom.

Didymocorypha, lanceolata
Talk about a weird species! In my oppinion, they have the weirdest looking heads! Native to Africa. It only takes them about 8 weeks to become adults!

The ones I'm selling are L4ish and can eat fruitflies.
Bolbena, hottentotta
This is the smallest species in the hobby! (native to Africa) They are communal and up to 10 adults can be kept in a 32oz container) and are VERY aggressive towards food. They adults will eat bluebottle flies even though they are only 15mm long! :blink: They are the FASTEST grwoing speceis I've ever had, I've had adults in 6 1/2 weeks! :blink: :wacko:
Here is a thread about them with pics:
