Where are empusa sp. commonly found?

[Colorcham427]

Hey guys,

sorry I just do not have much time to get on the internet lately, I'd totally find these answers myself if I had the time!

Do any of you know where empusa can be found in France, Spain, and/or Portugal? Like an actual location. I am not looking for a "look in a forest/shrub" answer lol

thanks!

where are idolomorpha found? south africa? or?

looks like you got all your answers in your own post.

 

[Colorcham427]

My post is way to general. I am asking for details. Any detailed spots? Like, preferred parks or locations lol?

So if i tell you where in Portugal to look, it's a plane ticket tomorrow and off you go!?!? I don't understand how it would help to know?

In France, try Vulcain's house, though he may be off on a field trip.

The area he lives is too cold.

What do you mean "empusa"?the Empusa pennata or fasciata or any other sp?Idolos, Gongys,Blepharopsis are also Empusidae.

I live in Portugal and i never seen such species here. I live in a very moisty and green region, i don't know if that species prefers the other way around. If it does then they might thrive in some parts of the country.
