Researchers of the fauna found an incredible insect in Vietnam – sticks, the length of which reaches 54 centimeters. Stickman mixes so well with the environment that notice it in the local jungle is very difficult. It looks like a herbivorous insect resembles a stick or branch. The first stickman discovered Royal Institute of Natural Sciences Research Group from Berlin. During their last expedition to Vietnam, they discovered several new species of insects, among which was Phryganistria heusii yentuensis – this is the name given to the wandler.
A photo from open sources To search for insects, the team used A special technology called bitting. She is in the following: first a large sheet is laid on the ground and it is covered with leaves, and after a while they put on a sheet sharp stick hit. Most disturbed insects pretend to be dead and just fall on the sheet, which helps detect them. Vietnam region filled with unique animal species and plants that cannot be found in any other place on Earth. This gives hope that next year the search team, working together with Vietnamese biologists will be able to detect a lot new species of insects.
