spidermonkey79 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Hi All, We are making plans to take a vacation to Orlando this January. The kids are finally old enough to enjoy Disney world and it so happens that my wife has a conference there in January that we can turn into a mini vacation. I have been looking for what species of roach I can collect while there. From the online research I have been doing I only get pest sites that tell me how to eradicate them and talk about the standard pest species, chinese, german, american, etc. I have heard that Panchlora nivea are in Florida and Eurycotis floridana. I was wondering if anyone knows if there are any other species that you can find in florida? Also where might I be able to find them, meaning can they be found in or around Orlando? If so where, or what types of habitats would be good to search for them in? I know that January is a ways away but I am hoping to get as much knowledge as I can before then.

greatwun Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 I have found male Panchlora nivea at night that come to my blacklight while I'm collecting beetles in oak hammock areas. Eurycotis floridana I have found inside of rotting tree stumps or under loose pine bark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
