What mantid species live on Long Island, NY

[Bugmankeith]

I know we have the chinese mantis, but that's all I've ever seen.

I heard a rumor carolina mantids live here but ive never seen them.

I wanted to order mantis ootheca that arent Chinese, I hatch them in spring/early summer and release them into my shrubs. So I was wondering what other species live here.

mantis religiosa, tenodera angustipennis

Tenodera sinensis, tenodera angustipennis and mantis religiosa.

Stagmomantis used to be native to NY but they seemed to have moved south.

I live on LI and in Nassau county I've only seen tenodera sinensis, but in sag harbor on the east end I've found angustipennis, sinensis and mantis religiosa

Thanks, I live in Suffolk county. Know any places that sell the ootheca, especially tenodera angustipennis.

 

[brancsikia339]

I don't know any places that sell angustipennis ooths, but garden centers usually have religiosa or sinensis ooths

Anyone here have them?
