Chinese Mantid
Tenodera aridifolia
The adult Chinese mantid occupies tall grasses, field margins, gardens, and other vegetated habitats. It is an ambush predator that seizes flies, moths, bees, and other insects with powerful grasping forelegs before feeding with its jaws. Adults have long wings and can fly, while their body coloration helps them disappear among stems and leaves.
