1/320 f/8.0, ISO 100, hand held. Taranto, Italy.

#Mantodea #Verde #Wild Iris oratoria (Linnaeus, 1758) è un insetto della famiglia Tarachodidae, rinvenibile in buona parte del bacino del Mediterraneo. Questa mantide viene spesso confusa con la Mantis religiosa, tuttavia una sostanziale differenza è riscontrabile nelle dimensioni delle ali notevolmente più corte. Generalmente è di colore verde ma talvolta assume una colorazione marrone, a seconda delle condizioni dell'umidità nell'ambiente circostante. La femmina ha una lunghezza che varia dai 5,5 ai 6 cm, il maschio leggermente più piccolo, dai 4 ai 5 cm. Può vivere per circa un anno, la stagione degli amori avviene tra agosto e ottobre, successivamente gli adulti sopravvivono raramente all'inverno. Condivide gli stessi habitat della Mantis religiosa.

Always well managed the shooting of the free-handed subject. Once you have taken the picture, you should notice the burning at the top of the cutlery and decide to take it wherever possible on the opposite side. Distractions that penalize your work.

Pigi, you are right, but I could not move from the opposite side because it was prevented by a large rowan plant.
Thank you very much for your accurate observations.
