Preying MantisPraying Mantis ID
Hi,
This praying mantis flew into my house on my table yesterday. It is about 3cm in length. I am wondering if you might have any idea what species is this mantis or whether it is a male or female? Thanks for the help! Regards,
Siyang , Singapore
Hi Siyang,
Sadly, we were unable to learn anything about your mantis. Perhaps a mantis afficionado will write in with a species identification. Its diminutive size is somewhat distinctive.

male mantids have 6 segments on their abdomens. female mantids have 8 ( count starting from the babk legs)
