Gonatista grisea ? - Gonatista grisea - Male
Middleburg, Clay County, Florida, USA
October 1, 2009
Size: 43.26mm
Collected at light trap. Cool night ~ 65F. Didn't move around
much. In going through the guide pages, closest I seemed to find
was the Grizzled Mantid, and possibly a male as the wings extended
past end of body. Correction and/or confirmation would be appreciated.

Mantids
Thank you David. One of my favorite insects, just don't know much
about them. Need to collect some literature as well.
