\nPraying mantis Mantis religiosa (L.) is one of those species in Polish entomofauna, which in the last dozen years have significantly increased the range. The expansion of this insect in Poland is probably related to the change of climatic conditions, i.e. with the increase of average annual temperatures, with mild winters without strong temperature drops and with the decrease of rainfall during the growing season. In this work, we publish fourteen new records which increase our knowledge about occurrence of Mantis religiosa religiosa from the south-western part of Poland (i.e. from the Lower Silesia, Opole and Silesia Provinces) and south part of Wielkopolska Province. We also shortly summarize and discuss these new findings referring them to historical and contemporary data as well.","author":[{"family":"Kadej","given":"Marcin"},{"family":"Dobosz","given":"Roland"},{"family":"Martyniak","given":"Kamil"},{"family":"Regner"},{"family":"Dolata"},{"family":"Smolis","given":"Adrian"},{"family":"Tarnawski","given":"Dariusz"}],"id":"unknown","issued":{"date-parts":[[2018,11,8]]},"language":"pl","publisher":"Zenodo","title":"Nowe Stwierdzenia Modliszki Zwyczajnej Mantis Religiosa Religiosa (Linnaeus, 1758) (Insecta: Mantodea) Na \u015al\u0105sku Oraz W Po\u0142udniowej Wielkopolsce","type":"article-journal"}
