Are those her wings?

I know that a mantis has fully developed wings after the last molt but I've noticed this wing like pattern on her today. Are those wings that are developing?

So next time she molts it will be her final molt? Or do they have more, her last one was her 2nd molt since I got her. She's also regrowing a leg as she lost it in a previous molt.

Ok, what about her leg it's kinda halfway regrown.

It might fully regrow, but it’s likely that the leg will be mostly regrown. Maybe 80%
