SPINY FLOWER MANTIS (Pseudocreobotra wahlbergii) - ©igor siwanowicz
Location: The Spiny Flower Mantis is native Africa, East to                              South
Status: Least Concern
Facts:The Spiny Flower Mantis is a wonderful species for any                            hobbyist. It is not hard to care for, so easy for the                            beginner, and one of the most beautiful of all species,                            and something that might be of interest to any collection.                            The only reason I would say this species would be a                            drawback as a starter mantis, is because it does not                            like to be handled, and can have quite a nasty bite                            when it spots a wondering finger!
A                      fantastically vibrant species as adult, bearing a multicoloured                      eye on the wing case, and a small number 9 on the side of                      the abdomen.
