EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by FLPA/Fabio Pupin, we witness a mesmerizing moment of nature's own optometrist at work. Meet the Mantis (Teddia dioscoris) adult from the enchanting island of Socotra, Yemen. With its delicate yet purposeful touch, this mantis is caught in the act of meticulously cleaning its eyes. As we delve into this snapshot of wild life on an Asian tropical archipelago, we are transported to a world where even insects understand the importance of personal hygiene. This endemic species takes grooming to another level as it tends to every nook and cranny around its precious peepers. With its head held high and eyes wide open, our tiny protagonist showcases the artistry behind maintaining crystal-clear vision amidst the vibrant surroundings. The Middle East Indian Ocean islands provide an idyllic backdrop for this diligent mantid's daily routine. Socotra Island serves as a sanctuary for these remarkable creatures known as mantids or mantodea. As they groom themselves with utmost precision and care, they remind us that cleanliness knows no boundaries – not even among arthropods! So let us take inspiration from this industrious insect and remember that sometimes all it takes is a little self-care to see things clearly in life's wild adventures!
