Looks like some sort of little boxer... too bad the photographer didnt get a shot of the inside of its arms. Nevertheless, very pretty mix of darks and brights.

Nice photo. Photos of adult females are rather rare, as this species as such seems to be not too abundant. It is a relative of Ceratomantis called Pachymantis. There are two species described, can't tell which one it is. The best known one is P. bicingulata. Not in stock.
