They were supposed to arrive on Wednesday, but due to some unknown problems they arrived today.... We were afraid they would all be dead, but 10 out of 12 made it alive.

We have 1.1 L4 and 10 unsexed L3.

L4 male:

L4 female:

We will make more pictures in the morning.

This are 3 from the smaller ones. It's so cool that they all look different.

Most of them look somewhat like this one.

Idolomantis diabolica? Wow...

Those are some of the most impressive looking insects I have ever seen. How many of them do you have, and how big do they get?

Thanks all!
We have 8 at the moment. In the range of L3-L5. A full grown Idolo will be around 13 cm long.
