Need Ooth ID please =)

[kitkat39]

Just got these in today. Some look familiar to me while others don't. If you guys could help me ID these ooths that would be great.

1:

2:

3:

4:

5:

5th one actually hatched on me before it got here.. so most nymphs are already dead.

2 and 3 look kind of like Hierodula Multispina, but more so #2

Thanks for your help! =)

1.unsure maybe same as 5

2.Stagmomantis florida

3.Stagmomantis Carolina

4.Brunerria Borealis (stick mantis) for sure

5.Mantis religiosa

The only one I could say for sure would be #4, Brunner's, definitely. #3 looks more like S. limbata to me...my Carolinas ooths haven't looked like that, but it looks almost exactly like the limbata.

The first one is Heterochaeta sp. ootheca. 2 & 3 could be of Sphodromantis or Hierodula sp ootheca, 4 is B. borealis ooth, and the last one looks a little deformed looks like a Parasphendale. It would be really helpful if we know where (which origin continent) are these oothecae from.

#3 is NOT stagmomantis.

LOL! OK this is what I was supposed to get in no particular order:

Heterochaeta, Hierodula Membranacea, Iris Oratoria, Stagmomantis Californica, Brunneria Borealis. Whether or not I got them, I have no clue as I've never worked with ooths of some of those species before so I wouldn't know...

 

[MantidLord]

Well, none of those look like Iris oratoria. That's all I can say.

Where did you get them from? Not trying to ruin anyone's reputation and it maybe have been a mistake on the sellers part, but still. :mellow:
