Chlidonoptera lestoni Roy, 1975
This beautiful species had me intrigued not long ago when it emerged in the mantis hobby in Germany . The leopard pattern and design is stunning and not just another species, this one is bold, a good size and a beautiful flower pattern and designer like earth tones .
this species is a winner by far and am glad to finally have some captive bred here in the USA
successful breeding here Usmantis 2/24/24 approximately 50 nymphsMoulin, Nicolas, 2020, A cryptic new species of Chlidonoptera Karsch, 1892 from the south west protected zone of the Central African Republic (Insecta, Mantodea, Hymenopodidae), ZooKeys 917, pp. 63-83
