Vorab: So wie ich meine Rhombodera kirbyi halte, habe ich die besten Erfahrungen gemacht. Wie sie jemand anderes hält spielt hier keine Rolle! Der Haltungsbericht besteht also ausschließlich aus den Erfahrungen meiner Haltung!

Allgemeine Beschreibung

Die Rhombodera kirbyi (Papua-Schildmantis) ist eine der größten Arten im Hobby. Meine Weibchen erreichten eine Körperlänge von etwa 9cm und Männchen immerhin noch 7cm. Die Färbung reicht von einem dunkleren Braun bis zu einem Goldgelb. 
Generell ist die Art eher Einfach zu halten. Am wichtigsten ist es den Tieren genug Platz zum Häuten zur Verfügung zu stellen. 

Interessant zu wissen: Diese Art frisst und verträgt problemlos auch krabbelndes Futter. Ich konnte schon oft beobachten, wie sie dem Futter hinterher gejagt ist. Das ist eher untypisch für Mantiden 

Haltung

Temperatur: 22-28°C (Nachts Zimmertemperatur) 

Luftfeuchtigkeit: 60-80% (Ich sprühe 3x die Woche) 

Futter: L1 - L2 Drosophila hydei; Ab L3 Goldfliegen und kleine Schabenarten wie Phoetalia pallida oder Shelfordella lateralis; Adult auch größere Schabenarten wie Blaptica dubia oder Heuschrecken. 

Gruppenhaltung der Rhombodera kirbyi 

Von der Gruppenhaltung ist auf Grund des Jagt Triebs und der hohen Aggressivität abzusehen. 

Verhalten 

Meist sind die Tiere sehr ruhig und hängen Tage an der gleichen Stelle, sobald sie jedoch Futter erspähen werden sie aktiv und laufen dem Futter nach. Fühlt sich ein Tier bedroht macht es sich groß und springt mit einem Satz weg, dieses Verhalten ist vor allem bei Jungtieren und Männchen zu beobachten. Adulte Weibchen machen sich ebenfalls groß, versuchen sich aber schneller auch aktiv zu verteidigen statt nur die Flucht zu ergreifen. 

Der Unterschied zwischen Männchen und Weibchen

Wie bei den meisten Mantiden lassen sich die Geschlechter an der Anzahl der Abdomensegmente unterscheiden. Weibchen haben 6 Segmente und Männchen haben 8. Zudem sind Adulte Männchen kleiner und schlanker.

Anfälligkeiten der Rhombodera kirbyi 

Nach meinen Erfahrungen, sind die Rhombodera kirbyi besonders anfällig auf:

- Schlechte Belüftung 
- Störung bei der Häutung

Good solid product
Purchased in February of 2025. Very solid item. Use it constantly in our 2011 4Runner and 2017 CX5. This unit attaches firmly to vent fins in both cars. I use iPhone for maps programs and streaming music. When traveling I'm constantly rotating device 90 degrees to use phone in portrait and landscape positions. Unit has shown no signs of losing ability to firmly hold desired position despite frequent rotations. It holds firmly where you place it. Initially I had concerns about placement on dash and blocking view of radio face, clock, MPG indicator, and other displays. Didn't take too long to realize the flexibility of this thing and the many, many positions you can place it due to multiple rotational joints. Pricing was fair. If this ever wears out, I will want to buy another.

Happy with purchase, easy to install, exactly what I needed
For many years, I'd been using a similar item with a wedge-type vent mount that finally stretched out and became unusable. When searching for a replacement, I wanted to try one with a different type of mount and I looked at many brands/types of holders. This one seemed to be the best item for the price ($8.99 at the time). So far, I'm very happy with it. I got it in a timely manner, and it was exactly as advertised. I had no problems attaching the hook to the vent fin and securing it. I use it for a GPS, and since the holder is designed to stand out away from the vent a bit, my device is easier to see than previously and details are easier to read. It wobbles, occasionally, but the holder's not loose, at all, and it doesn't affect my ability to read the device. The frame is barely just big enough to hold my GPS, but so far that hasn't been a problem. The device slides into the frame easily, locks securely, and stays put. The holder pops open at the touch of a button on the back, and the device can be removed easily, without issue.

Prevents me from adjusting the air vent up or down
It's true that it doesn't block the air flow. I had to put it on the left passenger side vent to retain the ability to point the driver's air vents where I want. With it over there, I have to turn my head too far to the right when I'm driving to see my phone, and the passenger can't adjust the vent up or down. Also, phone can't tilt as far left and right as other ones. Good price, unique design, easy to install, feels sturdy, holds iPhone SE fine, and doesn't block my view of the entertainment system.

BETTER THAN A CUP HOLDER
I had a cup-holder mount and it was always falling apart. No matter how it was turned, to unfasten my phone I had to move the spring part of the holder in the same direction that removes the entire clip from the stem of the mount. Of course, I eventually lost the clip. What a bad idea. And, in a 4-Runner, on my cupholder, MAPS sometines got lost and I would have to hold my phone up to the windshield for a minute to get back MAPS back on track. Also not a good Idea. We're not supposed to be handeling a phone and driving so holding my phone up to the windshield is kinda like flagging down a cop. (The 4-Runner has hand-free phone service, as well as some kind of circuitious navigation but it's always lost.) . So, for about $9 on sale, I though I would try one of these LISEN mounts. It works great ! Really. Easy to attach securely but scratchlessly it to my center AC/heat vent and It is infantly moveable. Swing the arm 360 degrees, in and out, phone up or saideways, and tilt the phone to me or the Boss. If I get bored, I can relocate it anywhere along the center vents, or even over to my side vent if I have nothing better to do.. It is sturdy, quiet, easy to clamp in my S21, and release is simplye by pushing the button on the back. Sooo much better that my previous mount, for a third of the price. It might be the best $9 you ever spent. And still worthwhile,if you have to shell out the $18. (But I always try to avoid paying full price for anything). Enjoy !

Usable but average, with only basic build quality and stability.
This in-car phone mount is fairly average overall. It’s easy to install and works for basic navigation needs, but the build quality isn’t particularly impressive. The materials feel a bit ordinary, and stability can be an issue on rough roads, with some looseness over time. It’s usable, but not outstanding.
