Spiny Flower Mantis – Nymph (Pseudocreobotra wahlbergii)

Tiny but fierce, the Spiny Flower Mantis (Pseudocreobotra wahlbergii) is a fan-favorite for good reason. With their bold patterns, spiky limbs, and signature green-and-white color palette, these mantids are walking works of art.

These unsexed nymphs are still small but already showing off that signature spiraled eye spot on the wings as they grow. Known for their active hunting style and high-speed reactions, they’re perfect for hobbyists looking for something with a bit of flair.

Best housed solo in a well-ventilated, vertical enclosure with moderate humidity and space to molt safely.
