Found a lovely Carolina mantis (Stagmomantis carolina) hanging out on my mom’s door; I migrated her to a fig tree. She cleaned herself on my hand! Her short wings reveal her sex; males have longer, flying wings.

Females reach and average size of 60mm ( 2.4in ), while males average around 54mm ( 2.1in ). I’m not sure if this one was male or female, as you can tell by its size, compared to my finger; it’s still a juvenile.

Working on a project.
I’m pretty positive it’s a Carolina Mantis; almost certain it’s not a Budwing.

Macro shot of the face of a Carolina Mantis!
They were indeed upside down at the time of the photo. 😂 Little alien!

📸 Shot by me on a Nikon D850.

An adult praying mantis, probably Carolina sp., is shown hanging upside-down from a crepe myrtle branch. She is pale green. The tips of her wings, which do not extend to the full length of her abdomen, are a paler green.

She did indeed molt sometime between 12:30 AM and 6:30 AM.

Carolina Mantis Ootheca! I’ve been moving rocks into the area that was previously a liriope (🙄) border. I made sure to tuck this rock in so the mantises are safe for the winter. #carolinamantis #nativespecies #invasiveremoval

#botober day 14: Womp Mittens. The young bugs had been warned not to scurry through Old Carol Mantid's yard, but young bugs rarely listen.
