This female was noted at the early morning on the wall of our building, she didn't move a bit throughout the entire day. By evening she started laying her eggs, the entire process took about 2 hours.
The species is also known as Green Mantis (Viridis = Green), and is identified by a white mark on each wing. They can also be seen at light brown color instead of green, so the white marks on the wings are more relaiable for describing the species.
