Nickel Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Just clearing out some hedges and a stick insect landed on me - I wondered if these are rare or common in France - I haven't seen one here before, though we do see the occasional Praying Mantis.

chris pp Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Your "sticky" may be Carausius morosus, it's not native to France but is raised here and often finds its way into gardens etc.Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
