Giant Leaf Insects - Phyllium giganteum - are named for their leaf like appearance, even down to the spots, veins and browing edges, which makes for outstanding camoflage in the jungles they inhabit in South-east Asia.  

So convincing is their deception that sometimes in an act of “accidental cannibalism,” Giant Leaf Insects, which eat — you guessed it — leaves, think that they’re chomping into a leaf when they’re taking a bite out of their neighbour!

In a black or white frame - 22cm x 17cm
