I posted a pic of this ant-mimicking praying mantis Gyromantis sp. (Amorphoscelidae: Paraoxypilinae) that utilises burned tree trunks to ambush prey. The female is only 2cm long, wingless and almost invisible against charred tree bark. After two weeks in my care, she laid eggs - oddly enough, the cocoon looks like a hawk moth larvae (another case of mimicry?). The nymphs hatched yesterday and they really look and act like small black ants, running around erratically, flicking their antennae just like ants do.
