Arthroverts Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 Never heard of this species before, how cool! The texturing is quite interesting. What stage of development is the specimen in the photo? What is their care like? Thanks, Arthroverts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabelskiii Posted April 29, 2021 Author Share Posted April 29, 2021 Ive never heard of this spiecies too, so when i saw these on some pricelist i bought them instantly. Its still a nymph , now its about 2,5-3cm but i know that they are growing to a size about 4,5cm-5cm... but i could be mistaken ( ive only seen adults on one photo). Caring for them is similar to some other Epilamprinae, humidity should be high, temperature around 23celsius, good ventilation, they eat oak/beech leaves as well as fruits...( i need to try dog food ) Their behaviour is very interesting, they can jump ( but only sometimes, for me they've jumped like 3 times) , play dead, and while being anywhere they try to adjust their body shape to the object ( they have very thin front part and they bend to the level of the surface). Those are only my observations, i got them about a week ago....but i love them already. This is one a little bit older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
