[QUOTE="Jgod, post: 289254, member: 8922"] Thanks for the information. I've lived in this area for about 10 years and I think I may have seen 3 or 4 mantis. But I haven't intentionally gone out in search of them. I tried a couple days ago to collect ooths in the wild but I think the part I chose sprays and cuts back too often to allow them to nest. I have however seen cracked open ooths in grassy abandoned lots so I might have to go check out those areas. I've read about the ground mantis and while they're really awesome and I'd love to learn more about them, they're more eastern Washington where it's a bit hotter and dryer. Maybe I'll have to go camping out that way and bring a camera and see if I can catch some photos. Where do you normally verify native species? I've check the Washington agriculture and entomology sites and they speak very generally about mantis as if there is only one species. (I believe most of the images I've seen on their sites are Tenodera sinensis) I've read that the[SIZE=12px] [/SIZE]Mantis religiosa is native to Europe. I cannot give a refutable source for this info unfortunately. Thank you. I'm leaning towards S. Carolina but I'll need to do a bit more research. [/QUOTE]
