Guest Anders Report post Posted December 19, 2007 Hello! Have anyone seen the movie bug? The nutty professor is crossbreeding species X with species Periplaneta americana The result is Parmitera hephaestus = Gromphadorhina portentosa My question is: What is species X? Some big nymph of some kind? Hope anyone can help me! Anders Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roachsmith 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2007 I haven't seen that movie. I'll have to check it out. I love how in movies and TV shows all the roaches are hissers. I guess they can't have german roaches running around on the set but they aren't fooling us bug people. lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Anders Report post Posted December 20, 2007 But this one was different. A big nymph. Blaberus giganteus looking, but I'm not sure. Can't find any info about this on the net, exept that the William Castle called the roach hercules and insured for one hundred thousand! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
