Ceratomantis saussurii Mantis Frame

This tiny little mantis has a funny common name.. "Bird Poop Mantis". 
Whilst the name might be amusing, they utilize specialized mottled coloration and a spiky body to mimic bird droppings, providing excellent camouflage against predators which I think is pretty cool.

Common in the exotic pet trade in some countries, these mantids are quite rare in the entomology trade.
