Two different internet databases/websites of potential interest
people. There is also a Scratchpad site called the Mantis Study
Group. I am in the process of becoming a user and then hopefully a
contributor. I would like to be able to share resources, information
and experiences with them; seems like a potentially win-win situation.
The url is: http://mantodea.myspecies.info/
Another site is the Mantodea Species File: http://mantodea.speciesfile.org/
This is database that seeks to be comprehensive in its scope and coverage of the worlds mantids; as of this posting there are 2406 valid species. Both sites have links to other resources. The Mantodea Species File is a joint effort, the principle database developer being David Eades from the Illinois Natural History Survey.
