Neat stuff. Did you hatch the A. cristatus? I'm wondering if they lay their ova singly like the popular African assassins or whether they lay them in clusters like our native Zelus spp.?

They lay ova in a cluster. I caught a male and 2 females late in the year (2008)one laid a cluster of ova that hatched a lot of little ones.
It took several months to reach adults but had a lot of fun with them.
