Mantis ID?

[Dangsy]

There's this Mantis that I'm looking at purchasing at my LFS, but they aren't sure what type of mantis it is.


What do you guys think?

Can you get us some better Pics?

 

[Dangsy]

the mantis kinda shrinks back when I try to snap a photo of it, I think the one above is the best one I got.

Here it is resized...

maybe

Gonodactylaceus glabrous?

I love him! Fantastic color. Looks like Chet at the end of AVP when she bursts out of Scar.
