Walking stick and predator.

Found these guys today in Jupiter, Florida while collecting E.floridana.

The spiders were found sharing the same fallen palmetto palm branches with E.floridana, but the walking sticks seemed to be a favorite for them.

Ooh, I like the spider especially (huntsman?).

At first glance I thought the walkingstick was Anisomorpha and was going to ask if you got sprayed, but in the full-sized picture it looks different.
