The Black Beauty stick insect (Peruphasma schultei) is a striking, critically endangered phasmid native to a tiny 5-hectare region in northern Peru. It is famous for its velvety matte-black body, vivid golden eyes, and small, bright red wings that it flashes to startle predators. Despite being rare in the wild, they are popular in the pet trade because they are relatively easy to care for and breed well in captivity. 
 
Key Biological Features
Appearance: Jet-black velvety body with bright yellow eyes and red mouthparts.
Wings: They have small, non-functional red wings (vestigial) used only for display.
Size: Females are larger, reaching 5.5–7 cm, while males are typically 3.8–5 cm.
Defense: When threatened, they can spray a mild, irritating liquid from glands behind their head.
Lifespan: Usually lives about 1 to 1.5 years.  
Care and Habitat
These insects are arboreal and require a tall, well-ventilated enclosure to allow for successful moulting.

Diet: In captivity, they primarily eat privet, honeysuckle, and lilac. In the wild, they feed on Schinus (pepper tree) leaves.
Environment:Temperature: 18–26°C (room temperature is generally fine).
Humidity: 60–80%. Mist the enclosure occasionally, but avoid spraying the insects directly too often.
Reproduction: Unlike many stick insects, they are usually not parthenogenetic and require a male and female to reproduce, though some captive populations have shown exceptions. Eggs take 4–6 months to hatch.
