Need help with mantis ID

[pnguye3]

I just picked up this mantis from the LFS. It's about 1 inch long, and the body is green and brown. There are also some purple vertical stripes along its arms and body. The eyes are also purple. Its legs are orange. I will try to get pictures up, but my camera isnt working properly right now.

Any help would be great.

Can you post any distinguishing factors? Eye shape, spearer/smasher, etc? sounds like a N. wennerae, but thats a pretty wild guess
