Haaniella
''Haaniella'' is a genus of the Phasmatodea family Heteropterygidae from Southeast Asia. Characteristics The species of the genus ''Haaniella'' reach a body length of 4.5 to 16.5 cm in the female sex. The males, which are 2.5 to 9.8 cm in length, are always smaller and have a slimmer abdomen than the females, whose abdomen, especially in the middle, is wider than the rest of the body. In females, as in all members of the subfamily Heteropteryginae, the abdomen ends in a secondary ovipositor, which surrounds the actual ovipositor. The fore wings (tegmina) of the adult females only just reach the abdomen. They also end at this height in the males of most species. Only the wings of males of '' Haaniella aculeata'', ''Haaniella glaber'' and ''Haaniella mecheli'' are significantly longer and have a similar wing construction as those of ''Heteropteryx dilatata''. Their narrow fore wings cover half or part of almost the entire abdomen. The hind wings below are usually even lo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Heteropteryginae
Heteropterygini is the only tribe within the subfamily of the Heteropteryginae (family Heteropterygidae; order Phasmatodea). With 19 representatives described, this subfamily includes the fewest species of the three subfamilies, but includes the largest and most striking species of the family. Characteristics Size and weight The representatives of the Heteropterygini are usually relatively large and heavy. Males become 2.5 to 13 cm long, females reach body lengths between 4.5 and 17 cm, with the larger species being clearly in the majority. Only the females of ''Haaniella parva'', '' Haaniella kerincia'' and ''Haaniella scabra'' remain smaller than 8.5 cm. The males of these species are at least 2.5 to 4.0 cm and a maximum of 3.7 to 5.7 cm long. The 14 to 17 cm long females of the ''Heteropteryx dilatata'' are not only the heaviest phasmids with 30 to 70 g, but are among the heaviest insects at all.

Haaniella Saussurei
''Haaniella saussurei'' is a species of stick insect native to Borneo and a typical representative of the subfamily Heteropteryginae. The occasionally used common name Saussure's Haaniella refers to the species name. Description As is typical for most of the species of the genus '' Haaniella'', both sexes of ''Haaniella saussurei'' have many sharp thorns on the body and legs and very short wings. The front wings, which are designed as tegmina, completely cover the short hind wings (alae). The latter are transformed into stridulation organs and are used to ward off enemies. The females are often patterned in contrasting light and dark brown, but can also only be dark. With increasing age, the contrast in the patterned females decreases and the animals become darker. Egg-laying females have a conspicuously plump abdomen, the end of which is formed by a spike-like laying apparatus that surrounds the actual ovipositor. The dorsal end segment of this ovipositor is formed by the eleve ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Haaniella Erringtoniae
''Haaniella erringtoniae'' is a stick insect species. It is a typical representative of the subfamily Heteropteryginae.

The sexual dimorphism typical of stick insects is also very pronounced in this species. The slimmer, little patterned to monochrome males are gray-brown to greenish in color and are about long. The bright green front edges of the thickened, only long front wings, which are here developed as tegmina, are striking. The bigger females reach a length of . They are reddish-brown and beige, or occasionally a light pink piebald. Typical are the light-colored bandages on the femurs and two rows of white dots on the ventral abdomen.

Haaniella Scabra
''Haaniella scabra'' is a species of stick insect native to Borneo and a typical representative of the subfamily Heteropteryginae. The occasionally used common name Small Haaniella refers to the size of this. Description ''Haaniella scabra'' primarily differs from most of the other representatives of the genus by its much smaller size. Many sharp spines can also be found in this species on the head, body and legs of both sexes. The formation of the wings also corresponds to that of the other '' Haaniella'' species. Both pairs of wings are shortened, with the forewings, which are designed as tegmina, completely covering the hindwings, which have been transformed into stridulation organs. The males are only long. The abdomen and legs are usually dark brown in color. The head and thorax are drawn somewhat livelier due to lighter parts. The spines in particular are usually very light or almost white. The forewings at rest reveal an equally bright "V"-shaped pattern. The remaining w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Haaniella Grayii
''Haaniella grayii'' is a stick insect species native to Borneo. It is a typical representative of the subfamily Heteropteryginae and the largest species of the genus '' Haaniella''.

Also typical of the genus are the strongly shortened forewings, developed as tegmina, which completely cover the short hindwings, which have been transformed into stridulation organs. The slimmer males, which have much more spines on their backs and are more colorful, remain smaller at than the females, which are long. In addition to almost monochromatic beige-brown, more rarely brown to black-brown females, there are also specimens with high-contrast light and dark brown patterns, which can have light, almost white patterns on the mesonotum, the front wings and the abdomen. They usually get a little da ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Heteropterygidae
The Heteropterygidae is a family of stick insects belonging to the suborder Euphasmatodea. Species can be found in Australasia, East and Southeast Asia. More than 130 valid species have been described (at the end of 2020). Characteristics Size The Heteropterygidae include both very small and very large and massive species. The representatives of the Dataminae are consistently rather small. So ''Planispectrum'' species are only long. The largest Dataminae species, with a maximum length of , are within the genera ''Pylaemenes'' and ''Orestes''. While the subfamily Obriminae with almost in ''Tisamenus hebardi'' and up to in ''Trachyaretaon carmelae'' shows a wide range of sizes, the Heteropteryginae are considered rather large. Indeed, there are very large and massive species, such as the up to long ''Heteropteryx dilatata'' known as Malayan jungle nymph, but also small species such as those in the male sex only long ''Haaniella parva''.
