Choeradodis rhombicollis, the Hooded mantis
Got a sub adult pair at the BTS today
Never thought i would ever get some thinking it would just be another species to look at photo's of in some rainforest lol.
They are even more incredible to look at in real life, my male should be moulting soon, would be great if i could breed them.
Here's the sub adult female in all her glory
wow they look great, hope you to breed, so pretty.
They are truly amazingIt was great to see so many of them at the show, and we were lucky enough to have an adult share the UKMF tables with us all day
Lovely pics. (You always have very nicely lit pics, btw...what's your setup?)
Best of luck with 'em...I'm sad now that I forgot to order any of these, or go to the BTS show.
Wow , they are truely incredible , the female looks close to moult too judging by the excess skin around wings and thorax?
I think im gonna have too get some of these been telling myself no but the are amazing.
From what the care sheet in the newsletter said, think you might be looking at a moult from your female within a week or so too.
How big is she?
Fantastic species, good luck breeding!
Has she molted yet??, lots of lose skin, should have done so by now!
those pics are amazing, you relly show the species well
Archimantis sobrina, Archimantis latistyla, Kongobatha diademata, Hierodula majuscula, Pseudomantis albofimbriata
I also got a pair @ BTS, the female has 2day moulted to adult
