Phyllium celebicum (PSG 128)

   Maybe this is a smaller species of Phyllium, as the ova are much smaller than others I have seen.  At hatching, the nymphs are brown, but with two pairs of distinctive light-green 1st & 2nd abdominal segments.  The legs have white stripes, which are very similar to Phyllium siccifolium, but the insect lacks the orange-tinting elsewhere.  As with all Phyllium they nymph becomes green as it begins to eat.  Males again, are slender, winged, and capable of flight, unlike the females.

Foodplants: bramble, guava, mango, oak
