I believe that the smallest species of mantis is the Purple Boxer manits, though I may very well be wrong. I have been trying to do some reasearch on this, but whenever I search "smallest mantis species", the Purple Boxer mantis is all that comes up. I hope this helped! Angain, I did not check my facts, but I am almost 70% sure that the smallest is the Purple Boxer mantis. Hope this helped! ;)
