Stick insects have the appearance of sticks, but with legs. These insects have taken the art of disguise to extremes. Many species have stem or leaf like bodies and subtle colours make them almost indistinguishable from the foliage of their food plants. Most species are harmless, although some sport bright colours on their bodies or wings to attract mates or to ward away predators, while some can emit a defensive spray which is described as strong or foul-smelling when threatened.
Some species also have large wings such as the Pink-Winged and can glide short distances.
