STENOBRIMUS BOLIVARI

What a beautiful and elegant species isn't it ?
Found that pretty rare species in South-East Luzon on a rainy night, enjoying the wet ferns, which they feed on exclusively. They come in 3 different "forms", the black/brown one (I also found on Mt-Cristobal / Laguna Province) is the adult , the black one with green spines is the subadult and finaly the most nice one mostly green with black stipes are the nymphs L1 to L4.
Long legs / weightless they move so elegantly in the wind on the ferns > love that species !
