A macro photo of the front of a gray/green praying mantis. THe mantis's head is triangular, it's large eyes are gray mottled with black, it's head is gray with mottled green and some black. The ocelli, primitive eyes are arranged in an inverted triangular pattern in the center of the head. The slender gray antennae extend towards the camera. The mantid's raptorial arms and pronotum, the area just behind the head, are colored gray with mottled light green and some black markings, a very lichen-like color and pattern which aids concealment.
Grizzled Mantis male, Gonatista grisea (possibly G. bifasciata pending taxonomic revision.) from 2021.

this was my pet Chinese praying mantis named Gremlin. she died at 7th instar on November 21st because we had no food for her. there were no bugs out since it was too cold. and my grandma wouldn't go to the pet store to buy some mealworms or crickets simply because she didn't feel like it. also my mom was sick, so she couldn't bring any mealworms or go to my grandma's house (btw my real grandma is dead, the one i live with is my foster grandma, thought y'all should know). every November, I always think of Gremlin, because that's the month she died.
Gremlin was in my bed on a cold day. I thought it would be cute and kind to put her there because she must've been a little bit cold. I did have her outside for a minute or two, but she was still mostly fine I think.
she was in the flowers... i really miss her because of this... :(
i miss her :( #prayingmantis #mantis #mantid #mantids #prayingmantid #prayingmantids

A brown praying mantis clings to the body of a black Panasonic camera, its front legs raised near the control dial.
Everybody thinks they're a photography expert now. I put my camera down for a minute and this mantis has to go and change my settings on me.
