Johnson's Stick-insect
Pseudosermyle phalangiphora
Adults inhabit tropical woodland and scrub, resting along branches where their long bodies resemble dry twigs. They browse on foliage, usually becoming active under the cover of darkness. When disturbed, an adult may remain rigid or release a defensive chemical secretion to discourage predators.
