Description
This is the nymph of Hierodula tenuidentata (Saussure, 1869), aka Giant Asian Praying mantis.Previously I recognized it as the nymph of Mantis religiosa (Linneus, 1758), or Praying European mantis, but later I got to consider it as Hierodula tenuidentata.
This male baby was about 2 cm or less than an inch long. And it's gonna become about 6–10 cm or 2–3" when it gets adult or imago.
