Cilnia humeralis (wide arm mantis), these are easily the most aggressive species in the hobby at the moment:

Idolomantis diabolica (Devil flower) these must be the most sought after:

7th instar male

Stilpnochlora couloniana (Florida bush cricket/katydid)
An adult female.

Eggs

1st instar nymphs

Larger nymphs

Thanks Tom, do you mean these:

They are very Alien-esque, more like the queen than the drones, must be why i like e'm so much Rolling Eyes

This is my oldest, 8th instar Idolomantis diabolica, Devil flower.
