not at all. They are however, difficult to see in their natural environment. in western PA. they are everywhere. The best place to find them, if you are patient is on plants with long slender leaves like Japanese iris's. They blend in so well that to see them look down the leaf shoots and you will see their legs. Where there is one there are usually several as they follow the pheromones of other mantis's and stay fairly close to the egg box.

∙ 10y agoevery species has incidents of albino offspring. however rare it may be. so to answer your question, you can be sure that somewhere in the world an albino mantis is walking around, you probably will never see one though. also nature is very unkind to albino species sort of a survival of the fittest deal. they are weaker,stand out to predators,unable to attract mates and so on.
I live in Fresno, CA. On August 2 2012 I seen an albino Praying mantis on my back deck. My 3rd time ever in my life seeing a praying mantis.
