Water Stick Insect (Ranatra
spec./ Ranatra linearis?) Family- Nepidae,
Order- Hemiptera.
I found this insect in a Confederation Park, Canada
BC, Burnaby. I found it as it fell from a tree into
the lake. It is almost identical to Ranatra linearis,
but i have never heard that it's habitat includes
Canada BC. This may very well be a new specie, but
only time will tell.
Diet: They pray on water flees, and water bugs.
Not sure of it's sex. Any one know on how to sex
them?
