Indo China Mantis (Hierodula patellifera)

Adult females of this species can reach lengths of around 3 to 4 inches (7.5 to 10 cm) or more, while males are typically smaller. The coloration of the giant Asian mantis can vary, but it often includes shades of green or brown. This helps them blend in with their natural surroundings.

Like other mantises, the giant Asian mantis is a carnivorous insect that preys on other small arthropods. They are skilled hunters and use their powerful front legs to grasp and immobilize their prey.
