Chinese insect fans Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 What kind of cockroach can reproduce asexually like American roach and Surinam roach? Can Periplaneta australasiae do so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Pycnoscelus surinamensis, Pycnoscelus nigra, Blatta orientalis, Periplaneta americana, Polyphaga saussurei, and Polyphaga obscura are all either entirely parthenogenetic or can reproduce that way if need be. I have observed Periplaneta australasiae reproducing parthenogenetically as well but the nymphs were extremely weak and did not live past the first instar.

Inyanga Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I believe the lobster roach has been known to do it too; https://www.google.co.za/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=oVRCU4ncKYfd8gf3y4DABA#q=nauphoeta+cinerea+parthenogenetic&spell=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
