Mantis Orchid

The mantis orchid is named after its mantis-like shape. The main difference between it and the Earth variety is that it can grow enormous in size. The orchid-like flowers rests on a single slender stem with narrow green leaves. 
The orchid has a highly specialized pollination system; it is only pollinated by one species of mantis. The two species co-evolved, resulting in their similar appearance and perfect fit between the mouth of the insect and the flower. Additionally, the insect can change color in protective camouflage so it is difficult to tell if one is viewing the insect or plant.
==Trivia==
