  1. family mantidae

    Family Mantidae, commonly known as praying mantises, is a group of large, typically green or brown insects that belong to the order Mantodea. They are characterized by their raptorial forelegs adapted for catching and holding their prey. Their triangular heads can turn 180 degrees and they have large compound eyes. They are named for their prominent front legs, which are bent and held together at an angle that suggests the position of prayer. Many species are found in North America, Central America and South America. Both male and female Mantidae are typically carnivorous and known for their aggressive predatory habits.
