Hierodula sp Giant Asian Mantis

Description

This listing is for Hierodula sp.

We unfortunately don’t know what species they are. They were sold to us as H. membranacea but we’ve come to determine that they are in the genus, but not the species we were told.

I’ve seen a photo of the adult and they look very similar to H. membranacea as adults in terms of size and coloration and patterning.

Offering them here as L3 nymphs or so nymphs (have shed their skin about 2 times) $17 each. Unsexed. Feeding on house flies at this point. Please note that antennae on this species are somewhat fragile and one or both are often shortened or missing. These will regenerate as the mantis molts. Please take this into consideration.

(Note: Photos if of H. bipapilla–a closely relates species but is very close to the appearance of this species.)
