Updates/Back for the summer

[guapoalto049]

Hey everyone, good to be back! First year of school is in the bag, and I am free for the summer so I'll be active on here.

Will be posting some pics soon of my last mantids from Fall/winter '12. I ended up and giving away and selling everything. I have a nice pinned collection now, post pics of that too. This summer I'll be dealing with some religiosas and Chinese.

In a week I'll be heading down to Peru for some medical mission work, followed by a trip into the Amazon basin for a week. I'll be on the lookout for all of our favorites :detective:

Welcome back!

Back from Peru! Found around a dozen mantids and three ooths, I'll post pics and details later on.

No Choeradodis were found unfortunately, here are my two theories. 1. They seem to be found more commonly in Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Ecuador. 2. I was in the Amazon basin, and I think Choeradodis are found in cloud forests. Just my ideas.

@Sciencegirl: 25 members of my medical class went down with 2 doctors and set up free medical clinics in two locations and brought boxes upon boxes of medicine, vitamins, etc. to donate.
