      Indeed and they are very hard to find in the wild, which is why some species are only known from male specimens as the males are still good flyer and do fly to lights whereas the females although they have wings, are unable to fly and lives in the canopies. Posted 3 years ago

          Not surprise that you may not be familiar as Leaf Insects are only documented from Asia. Posted 3 years ago
