What does that numbering mean?

[Jay]

Hi Everyone.

I know that I haven’t said much in the past and I am glad to be involved in this forum. I searched the forum and couldn’t find what this numbering means that people have after listing the kinds of mantises they have.

I can understand what L1 and L2 mean but what does it mean when someone says they have 0.2.0 of a species or 2.0.1 of another species? I usually see people from Europe using numbering like that.

If I am asking something that has already been asked before please let me know.

Thanks!

ok the first number means how many males 2.0.0 this means 2 males

second means females

and the third is unsexed

1.8.2

one male eight females two unsexed

hope this has helped
