ambystoma Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Just wondering whether or not there's a comprehensive list out there for roach species in the hobby? I know that a similar list has been compiled, with breeding records, for mantids. It would certainly be interesting to see how many and what species are out there.

Hisserdude Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 I do not believe there is, but I think we should make one. It would require a lot of work however, and it is hard to know if and when new species enter the hobby or leave it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hisserdude Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Good god Cariblatta, you have the largest collection of parcoblatta I've ever seen! And Mr.crackerpants, I think that list might be a little out of date. Here's what I got: Ergaula capucina Hemiblabera tenebricosa Parcoblatta americana Polyphaga aegyptiaca Polyphaga saussurei Therea olegrandjeani Therea petiveriana Therea regularis And I'm gonna make an order from roachcrossing soon, so I'll add some more to the list soon!

pannaking22 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Well, he is the Parcoblatta king Very comprehensive list you have there, crackerpants! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njohns Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) lucky Edited March 30, 2015 by Peter Clausen Unnecessary duplication of a very long list, and very mild reference to profanity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambystoma Posted March 29, 2015 Author Share Posted March 29, 2015 Haha, definitely a pretty good start here. Cariblatta, that's quite a few species. Might say I'm a bit envious of that collection. I'm thinking my next species will be Lucihormetica... they look pretty awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cariblatta lutea Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 it's all thanks to Kyle and the wonderful nature of AL (of the 11 species of Parcoblatta I currently have, 8 came from my area. lol). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambystoma Posted March 30, 2015 Author Share Posted March 30, 2015 I wish there were more species to find in my area, but central NY is seriously lacking in roaches haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 At the Insect Zoo we have: Lucihormetica subcincta Lucihormetica verrucosa Archimandrita tesselata Rhyparobia maderae Gyna lurida Therea petiveriana Therea olegrandjeani Byrsotria fumigata Periplaneta americana as-yet-unidentified Periplaneta Nauphoeta cinerea Pycnoscelus surinamensis Panchlora nivea Blaberus giganteus Blaberus craniifer Blaberus discoidalis Blaberus fusca Blaptica dubia Eublaberus posticus Princisia vanwaerebecki Gromphadorhina portentosa and have had Elliptorhina laevigata and E. javanica.

Hisserdude Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 There is a database of world cockroach cultures that anyone can contribute to. I highly suggest everyone here contribute to it, here is the link: http://www.roachbrai...resources/ofajg It is a very cool concept, and I hope more people participate in it!

Hisserdude Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Use chrome browser, it opens fine. I knew I should of not looked at this post.... Yeah I use chrome, I was trying to download it and open it but it downloads as a zip file, which my computer can't read unless I buy some new software. Then I saw you could just click on the file and read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
