All About Arthropods Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 These guys are awesome! By far, my new favorite species of Eurycotis! Definitely will try to get my hands on some of these once they are added to the site! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, the nymphs look a lot like E. opaca, but adults look spectacular! You can see the pic of adult on pg 26 of this article http://digitalcommons.unl.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1853&context=insectamundi These guys are awesome! By far, my new favorite species of Eurycotis! Definitely will try to get my hands on some of these once they are added to the site! IKR? It's my fav.

If you do, make sure to get a secure container as 1st instar nymphs are quite notorious for escaping and ending up in other roach enclosures.

LOL Yeah, will do, I've heard their Vaseline climbing skills are top notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cariblatta lutea Posted October 10, 2016 Author Share Posted October 10, 2016 Yeah, will do, I've heard their Vaseline climbing skills are top notch. Yep. They climb over vaseline like it's nothing. Had several E. floridana escape that way and they ended up in E. lixa colony Because of this I got rid of all the floridana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'll probably have to use those weather proof storage bins for this genus whenever I get some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'll probably have to use those weather proof storage bins for this genus whenever I get some. floridana got caught before they matured so they didn't get a chance to breed with my lixa. LOL Even if they did I doubt they can create hybrids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
