Back cover image :
Leaflings - a work of fine art photography by Gerhard Hillman of Naturesface Art , is a botanical creatures artwork . Hidden within the many layers and folds of these leaves are unique creatures found in the Wet Tropics Far North Queensland . When he ' s photographing in the rainforest , Gerhard is searching for creatures and interesting botanical elements .
The animals are often found on the leaves and plants that they eat or call home . Sometimes they are hidden underneath the leaves and many are also found on the forest floor amongst the leaf litter . Being aware of the different creatures physical characteristics , behaviour and diet play an important role in finding them . Many animals are nocturnal .
See if you can find these creatures : Giant Rainforest Mantis ( Hierodula majuscula ), Emperor Gum Moth ( Opodiphthera eucalypti ), Hercules Catterpillar ( Coscinocera hercules ), Impatiens Hawk Moth ( Theretra oldenlandiae ), Rainforest Scorpion ( Liocheles hommurous ), Rhinoceros Beetle ( Dynastinae ), Leaf Insect ( Phyllium montheithi ).
