Following the Wikipedia:WikiProject Arthropods guideline:

"In cases where a group only contains a single subgroup, the two should not be separated. If there is no common name, the article should generally go under the scientific name that is most often used when discussing the group, or under the scientific name of lowest rank if there is no clear preference. However, for a genus that contains a single species, the genus name should be used since it is included in the binomial. For instance the order Amphionidacea, which has the single species Amphionides reynaudii, is discussed at Amphionides."

Accordingly, any mantis genera with a single species need to be in an article for that genus name, not for the species name. Thanks. Dyanega (talk) 17:08, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
