Its unusual coloration and shape make it look like part of an exotic flower &#8211; a perfect example of natural camouflage in its most sophisticated form. This species not only captivates terrarium fans with its appearance, but also delights with its calm nature and fascinating hunting technique.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Originally comes from <strong><span class=\"s2\">Hymenopus coronatus<\/span><\/strong> originates from the tropical regions of Southeast Asia, especially Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand. There it inhabits the lower to middle vegetation area of moist, warmer forests. Its camouflage helps it to hide among flower petals and lie in wait for prey &#8211; especially small insects that are attracted by the &#8220;flower&#8221;.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The body shape is special: broad, laterally flattened &#8220;flower lobes&#8221; on the legs and thorax as well as intense shades of white, pink or soft yellow give it the typical orchid appearance. The colors can vary depending on temperature and posture. Males remain significantly smaller and lighter than females and only reach around 2.5 cm, while females grow up to 8 cm.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The posture of <strong><span class=\"s2\">Hymenopus coronatus<\/span><\/strong> is relatively demanding. A humidity level of around 70-80 % is ideal, combined with temperatures between 25 and 30 \u00b0C. Good ventilation is essential to prevent mold growth. Sphagnum moss or fine coco humus is suitable as a substrate, preferably supplemented with living plants to stabilize the microclimate. The animals also need sufficient structure &#8211; for example, diagonally placed branches or leaves on which they can shed their skin.    <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">They are not particularly choosy when it comes to feeding, but should be regularly provided with small food insects such as fruit flies (Drosophila), micro-homes or young cockroaches. The orchid mantis is a skillful ambush hunter &#8211; it attacks at lightning speed when prey approaches. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Who is interested in <strong><span class=\"s2\">Hymenopus coronatus<\/span><\/strong> you are getting a real gem in your terrarium. Its graceful appearance, elegant behavior and unusual coloration make it one of the most popular mantid species among enthusiasts. It really comes into its own in high-quality display cases or show terrariums.  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Food:  <\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid prrow\">\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-3\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<ul>\n<li>L1\/L2: Small fruit flies, crickets XS<\/li>\n<li>L3\/L4: Large fruit flies, crickets S<\/li>\n<li>L5\/L6: Gold flies, mealworms, crickets M<\/li>\n<li>L7\/adult: blowflies, crickets L<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"st\">Its flower-like appearance makes it one of the most beautiful mantids of all.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":143114,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product-supplier":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1474],"product_tag":[],"lce-checkout-addons":[1730],"class_list":{"0":"post-158704","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-mantids","7":"product_shipping_class-animal-shipping","8":"pa_geschlecht-indeterminate","9":"pa_herkunft-malaysia-en","10":"pa_kontinent-asien","11":"lce-checkout-addons-winter-packaging","13":"first","14":"instock","15":"sale","16":"taxable","17":"shipping-taxable","18":"purchasable","19":"product-type-variable"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Hymenopus coronatus &quot;Orchid Mantis&quot; - Insektenliebe<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Buy cheap Hymenopus coronatus &quot;Orchid Mantis&quot; online.
