Phasmatidae (common walkingsticks and walking sticks)

Synonyms: Lanceocercata; Phasmidae

Wikipedia Abstract

The Phasmatidae are a family of the stick insects (order Phasmatodea). They belong to the superfamily Anareolatae of suborder Verophasmatodea. Like many of their relatives, the Phasmatidae are capable of regenerating limbs and commonly reproduce by parthenogenesis. Despite their bizarre, even threatening appearance, they are harmless to humans.
