Huntsman Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Which of the commonly kept species are parthenogenic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EffeCi Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Pycnoscelus surinamensis.... and also Polyphaga aegyptiaca can make some parthenogenetic generations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 P. nigra (sp?) I think too. I'm sure B. lateralis and many Periplaneta can do it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeriplanetaAmericana Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Also Nauphoeta cinerea. Which sp. of Periplaneta are partenogenetic Zephyr? Thank you! :-) Best regards, Javier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Also Nauphoeta cinerea. Which sp. of Periplaneta are partenogenetic Zephyr? Thank you! :-) Best regards, Javier. I've read one report and talked to a professor who did studies of parthenogenesis in P. americana. I'd assume most of the other Periplaneta species can reproduce as such also.
