Hierodulinae
The ''Hierodulinae'' are a subfamily of praying mantids, originally used by Brunner von Wattenwyl. It was restored as part of a major revision of mantid taxonomy, and now contains genera previously placed elsewhere in the family Mantidae. The new placement means that this taxon is part of the superfamily Mantoidea (of group Cernomantodea) and infraorder Schizomantodea. Species have been recorded from: Africa, Asia and Australia. Tribes and genera This subfamily now contains many genera that were previously placed elsewhere including the Mantinae. The ''Mantodea Species File'' lists two tribes here: Archimantini * subtribe Archimantina ** ''Archimantis'' Saussure, 1869 ** '' Austromantis'' Sjostedt, 1918 ** '' Austrovates'' Sjostedt, 1918 ** '' Coenomantis'' Giglio-Tos, 1917 ** '' Corthylomantis'' Milledge, 1997 ** '' Nullabora'' Tindale, 1923 * subtribe Pseudomantina ** '' Pseudomantis'' Saussure, 1869 * subtribe Trachymantina ** '' Sphodropoda'' Stal, 1871 ** '' Trachym ...

Titanodula
''Titanodula'' is a genus of mantids in the subfamily Hierodulinae. There are currently five species placed in ''Titanodula''.

Hierodula
''Hierodula'' is a genus of praying mantids in the tribe Hierodulini, found throughout Asia. Many species are referred to by the common name giant Asian mantis because of their large size compared to other mantids. Their large size and vibrant coloration make ''Hierodula'' mantids popular in the pet trade. Some widespread species include '' H. membranacea'' and '' H. patellifera''; however this has been considered a 'catch all' genus and is currently subject to review. In 2020, three species were moved to a new genus, ''Titanodula''.Xavier H.C. Vermeersch. 2020.

Mantidae
Mantidae is one of the largest families in the order of praying mantises, based on the type species ''Mantis religiosa''; however, most genera are tropical or subtropical. Historically, this was the only family in the order, and many references still use the term "mantid" to refer to any mantis. Technically, however, "mantid" refers only to members of the family Mantidae, and not the 14 remaining families of mantises. Some of the most recent classifications have promoted a number of the mantid subfamilies to the rank of family, e.g. Iridopterygidae, Sibyllidae, Tarachodidae, Thespidae, and Toxoderidae, while other classifications have reduced the number of subfamilies without elevating to higher rank. Subfamilies and genera Following the major revision of the Mantodea in 2019, the ''Mantodea Species File'' includes ten subfamilies: Choeradodinae The Americas, Asia * '' Asiadodis'' Roy, 2004 * ''Choeradodis'' Serville, 1831 * †'' Prochaeradodis'' Piton, 1940 Deroman ...

Tamolanica
''Tamolanica'' is a genus of praying mantises native to Asia.

Pnigomantis
''Pnigomantis'' is a genus of mantises in the family Mantidae. It is monotypic, being represented by the single species ''Pnigomantis medioconstricta''Westwood JO (1889) ''Revis. Mantid.'' 35, pl. 12, f. 4. common name Indonesian double shield mantis or double shield mantis. Description Adult males are about 79 millimeters in length while adult females are about 86 to 89 millimeters in length. The coloration is highly variable, and seemingly not related to environmental conditions. There are red bands in between the upper abdominal segments used in the threat display used to deter predators. The characteristic "double shield" appears roughly after the fifth instar, females have nine instars, while males have eight. The inside of the forearms is a light blue-purple color, with dark black markings on the lower arms to seemingly act as eyespots. Most adults will turn a grey color with slight checkering on the wings, two light spots are present on the forewings. The Pnigomantis also p ...
