So someone decided a window of my mother-in-law's house would be a perfect place to raise offspring. What I want to know is, which species is responsible for this?
It's quite small, but not nearly small enough to be from a species as tiny as the Amantis sp. I've been seeing around these parts. But it's also way to small to be from any of the larger species like the Rhombos, Tenoderas or the Heirodulas... And it doesn't look characteristic of the Creos or Orchids... Unless it's like--a really late, lazy ooth, maybe? It's got some fluffy texture happening, as you can kind of see...
What southeast asian species would lay an ooth like this, any ideas? Too small to be from a Statilia sp.? Could it be Tropidomantis? I have zero clue when it comes to ooths...
Also, is a window a safe place for the little twerps that might emerge? I've opted not to touch it, since momma usually knows best, but I'm a little worried momma might have Darwin'd her own progeny this round. It's in a very shaded area, a tall concrete fence blocks out all the sunlight from flooding this area, which may be a good thing? Or does an ooth need a good amount of sunlight to hatch?
