Roaches Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Hi all, I'm Tom van der Ende from The Netherlands 36 years old I do some work for Museums here in the Netherlands and with the University I’m new inside the cockroaches hobby I have now 24 years experience with scorpions of the genus Tityus also from South America. Because I was looking for roaches from the same area as my scorpions for food I found Firefly Schultesia lampyridiformis and Lobster Roach Henschoutendenia flexivitatta what I use as food now. Also I saw roaches of the genus Lucihormetica they are beautiful. So I started searching for Lucihormetica species and I register myself as member of the Blattodea Culture Group (BCG) and I come in contact with the person who described Lucihormetica grossei. Now I have 3 Lucihormetica species: Lucihormetica subcincta Lucihormetica verrucosa Lucihormetica grossei Greetings from The Netherlands My website: Http://www.scorpiology.com Http://www.tityus.eu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nhewyt Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Hello and welcome - but, FYI, for some reason the first link you have directs to a site which comes up as "DANGER" both on the WOT scanner and my security software. I closed out immediately. However, if one does a search for the name you gave the link, the link comes up as OK. So what's up, you're not trying to give us a "bug" are ya?

Allpet Roaches Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Welcome Tom. Maybe you'll find you like some of the other South American roaches like Blaberus, Archimandrita, Eublaberus, etc.? Lucihormetica is a neat genus but for some reason they are still quite rare in the states (not because of small size, I think many people have trouble getting production on them).

bartus Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hello Tom, i'm Bart, also from Holland. I'm keeping the following roachspecies: Archimandrita tessalata Blaberus discoideus Blaptica dubia Gromphadorhina portentosa Gyna lurida Panchlora sp. giant Therea petiveriana Poetalia Pallida If you are interested in any of these maybe we can swap animals. I'm also registered at insectfocus.nl witch has an Blattaria forum. We can conversate there in Dutch : it wouldn't be polite to write Dutch here Regards Bart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I like the idea of sharing information and swapping cultures. Anybody here in US who's a member? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
