I don't know why these mantis attracts me so much. This one I found in our Boisa (a little monsoon fed lake in our village) region. Though this is the only specimen I found till now. A species namely Unicorn Boxer Mantis was also found almost a couple of kilometers away from this region looking similar to this one. This one looks almost similar to that one though have dark coloration. The inner spots of the front legs can not be recorded as it moved a little and it was set to its freedom by not disturbing it too much. Any idea to its identity would be appreciated.
