Taraxippus samarae “Siquirres” is a rare phasmid species native to select regions of Costa Rica and neighbouring Panama. Recently discovered in March 2018 by Jürg Sommerhalder and formally described in 2020, this species was named in honour of his daughter, Samara. The species has gained increasing popularity in culture due to its remarkable moss-mimicking appearance, earning it the common name 'mossy stick insect'.
These nymphs are captive-bred (CB).
