Description

Archimantis monstrosa pair
Identified as Archimantis monstrosa on Bowerbird by Matthew Connors: "A large male nymph and large female nymph were found on opposite sides of a large tree late at night. This species can be distinguished from A. latistyla primarily by the presence of numerous spines on the margins of the pronotum (easily seen in second photo)"
