Good morning
I am trying to find out what Praying .antis this is. It sits on the top of the same plant and eats flies I catch for him/her.

- My little Flower Mantid.

Hiya
Good question
I think, if it is very tiny, as yours here it can be only a nymph. It does not look like a L1 but L2 or L3 maybe.
How about this one?

I love the banded legs
