Popa Spurca (African twig mantis) Sex:Female corky platesDescription: Popa spurca, also known as the African twig mantis, is a species of mantis native to Africa. It takes its common name from its resemblance to twig from a woody plant and grows up to 8 centimetres (3. 1 in) long if female or 7 cm (2. 8 in) long if male. Just like a twig that has fallen from a tree branch. Every part of this Mantis is camouflaged. They have matching bumps and growth rings and even the eyes look like wood! From young Nymphs
