Y'all know the drill, got a lot of these, maybe too many if that's possible, and looking to sell off a few. 15x Anadenobolus monilicornis@$3 apiece. Price is practically wholesale, so probably not going to budge on it, but you can be sure of freebies because like I said above, I have a lot of...

Worked out a great trade with @scottbot84, he shipped out first, and was exceedingly patient with me as I ran into multiple shipping problems right out the gate; I got him his specimens in the end, and he was very gracious about the whole transaction. His packaging was excellent, his specimens...

Hello all, the May Meeting will be the 16th, from 10:00-11:30 AM, most likely on Skype. Still looking at keeping meetings virtual due to covid-19. While this does have disadvantages and I'd much rather meet in person, it does allow us some flexibility in terms of speakers. Stay tuned for more...

Hello fellow enthusiasts, due to the covid-19 situation (unless otherwise announced), the April Meeting will be carried out online via Skype, from 10:00-11:30 AM, on the 18th (Saturday). I will send out a link to join the meeting shortly. Despite the downside of not being able to do what we...

Hey all, I've got a few things I'm looking to sell/trade. 5-10x Anadenobolus monilicornis juveniles@$3 apiece. Buy 6@$15. 1x Eleodes osculans@$8 apiece. SOLD 8-10x Gromphadorhinda portentosa "Hybrids" various sizes@$10 for the lot. I think I developed an allergy to these so I'm seeing how I...

Hello all, the March Meeting will be at Hulda Crooks Park in Redlands, 10:00-11:30 AM, on the 21st (Saturday). I'm thinking of having our topic as "The Invertebrate Hobby and the Law", but considering how we tend to go down roach holes as soon as we start talking I dunno if we'll get to that...

Happy New Year for all you who follow the Gregorian Calendar! May your collection continue to grow into what you want it to be: Keep on Roaching! Thanks, Arthroverts

Hello all, so recently I was nosing about under some pots (like I usually do), and I found this: :  Apologies for the poor quality, it was completely dark when I took the photos and the camera didn't have enough time to focus once the flash went off. Anyway, just your regular Blatta...

Hello all, I was just checking out Roach Crossing's website, and there are signs of life on it! New species have been added! Is this a sign of Kyle's return? Has anyone been in contact with him recently? @All About Arthropods, @Hisserdude. Thanks, Arthroverts

Hey all, with the (relatively) recent deregulation of 3 Goliathus sp. and multiple roach species I am wondering if there is any hope that exotic millipedes will be deregulated in the US? I believe they are banned under the Lacey Act, which protects US agriculture, but millipedes are detrivores...

EDIT: Looks like he actually turned out to be a female! Still looking for a male. Hello all, I have what I believe is a recently matured female Spirostreptus sp. "8", also known as a Green Fairy Tail Millipede. I had a male for her, but she was immature at the time and then he died from old...

Hey all, I was wondering about what happened to @Redmont Exotics? I have been eagerly awaiting the many species he was importing to be released, and I have been needing to purchase a female of a millipede species he had for sale, but since then all has gone dark. Is this just another example of...

Hello all, the Invertebrate Club of Southern California's September meeting is set for the 21st, 10:00-11:30 AM at Arlington Gardens in Pasadena.  I am still looking for a guest speaker, but if we can't find one I'm thinking we'll just let this one off for free conversation :). If you know you...

August meeting is tomorrow! More info in the Google Group. I have also attached our club calendar that goes out to 2020. We are doing a velvet worm import from Canada right now, and after this one we are looking at doing another that may include some rare roaches. Stay tuned! Thanks, Arthroverts

Hello all, I am looking for guest speakers to come and speak at some of the Invertebrate Club of Southern California's meetings. You don't need to be a scientist, and you won't have to stand on a stage ;). We're just looking for experienced and enthusiastic fellow hobbyists to come and share...
