Last Observed: November 2015 at Lonely Beach, Koh Chang
Observed By: David Newman, Tijl Adriaen, Dave Hinchliffe, Suthanai Krupanich
This huge insect is a master of disguise and is one of several Koh Chang jungle insects that protect themselves from predators by looking like leaves or twigs. As with many Koh Chang species it is the world’s largest example of the animal family, and it’s particularly surprising to find one of them crawling across your computer monitor.
