Starting in early June the Wide Armed mantis is growing and is quite white in coloration now .
5dsr mpe 65 at x4 magnification.
The two flower mantids are now sub adult, meaning they will become adult at the next skin moult and get their wings. I still cant work out if they are both male or not.
You can see the wing buds now, quite thick and colour showing through. So it will not be long before getting wings .
both 5dsr mpe 65 at x1 life size , they are a very small species.
The Dead leaf if still growing very slowly , he is sub adult now. and has fabulous eyes !
