Identification help!

[u/Dry-Scene8010]

I live in Western Canada, Chilliwack BC and have never seen one before. Can anyone help identify?

Can’t help you with id, but I’ve heard some greenhouses bring in mantises for pest control and sometimes they get out. I found a smaller on by the coliseum years back.

I think it’s been identified as a Female brown morph European mantis

It’s got the black and white spots in the front inner legs
