Before humans were drawing pentagrams on anything that stood still, nature already had a creature that looked like it crawled out of a fever dream. The Devil's Flower Mantis, Idolo mantis diabolica, is one of the most visually unhinged insects on the planet, a master of foliage mimicry that transforms into something terrifying the moment it decides you're prey.This piece belongs somewhere dark and deliberate, above a record shelf, beside a skull, in any room that understands that the natural world is already gothic if you look closely enough. The Devil's Flower Mantis rearing up on its hind legs, front arms raised, is pure biological horror theatre, and it didn't need a special effects budget.Framed specimen, ready to hang. Dimensions vary slightly by specimen. Handle with the respect you'd give anything that once hunted for a living. Show more
