Choeradodis strumaria, common names leaf mantis and hooded mantis, is a species of praying mantis native to French Guiana and Suriname; although there have been reports from other, distant countries, these are considered erroneous.[1][2]
Description
The hooded mantis is also called the leaf mantis or leaf-mimic mantis because it mimics leaves.[3] Like most other mantids, it is an ambush predator. C. strumaria is a chlorophyll-green colour and has a uniquely shaped hood;[4] its wings have leaf-like veins that add to its perfect camouflage. It also has colorful patterns on the underside of its prothorax.
