Wanted: Photos of your Mantis!

[TrappedMetal]

Hi guys.
I am currently putting together a very informative website with lots of images, articles, removal methods etc and am a few images away from completing a 20 strong list, including some very rare mantis indeed.
I am in desperate need of good quality images of N wennerea and G graphurus.
If you have any images of your mantis that you do not mind me using on my website (with full credit given obviously) please do post them.
Thanks
James

Here's Bella (tenatively ID's as a G. graphurus):

Just credit them to Rob "Zombo" Zamites (and Bella)

Do you have telson shots to confirm this?
Thanks for your images, much appreciated.

Thanks for the replies so far people.
Am i going mad or does someone on here have a platysoma??

 

[Fishymurray]

Hay, James do you still need a picture of a Neogonodactylus wennerae. I have some nice photos of my lime green Mantis, out of his burrow.

prodman and vaccaville hae great pics of a platysoma

 

[VacavilleFC3S]

platysoma as requested

 

[TrappedMetal]

Murray, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks for the photos of the platysoma, who should the credit go to?
Nearly there now folks, site should be launched within the week!

 

[Fishymurray]

This is my first time uploading pictures, lets see if I got this right. You can use what ever picture you want.

Credit them to Patrick Murray and Fleck the Mantis.
Thank you.

Did this animal come from Indonesia or the Carribian?

 

[Rob_Zamites]

TrappedMetal,
camera batteries died, but I got a good look at Bella's telson -- she's a glabrous, not a graphurus -- sorry man.

 

[TrappedMetal]

Thats ok, at least we know now!

 

[Fishymurray]

From the Carribian. I found him in my Carribian live rock I ordered last year.

N.Wennerae
Got a new N.Wen. that I've been tryin to take some pics of but so far he has eluded me.

Lysiosquilla Maculata.
Be nice if this guy wasn't so buried in his burrow all the time, he really has some nice color to him.
