Amantis malayana is a species of praying mantis native to Indonesia, on the islands of Bacan, Kaisa,[Note 1] and Sulawesi.[3]
Notes[]
- ^ The place name "Kaisa" does not seem to appear in modern records. However, Alfred Russel Wallace visited the Kaisa Islands in about 1859.[1] "Kaisa" was alternatively spelled "Kaisaa", and has been identified as Kayoa,[2] within the Bacan archipelago. A. malayana was reported on "Kaisa" in 1889.[3]
