aoikirin Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Why on earth? They aren't even in the same genus, much less the same species! Has anyone else seen that ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hisserdude Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Well since they are somewhat closely related, and female Therea share the same body shape as female Ergaula, I wouldn't be surprised if the male Ergaula attempted to mate with them... It should be impossible for them to produce any offspring though, they aren't THAT closely related! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 It would be neat to see what a cross looked like, but attempted mating does not mean fertilization. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpet Roaches Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 To clarify, the latest I-M issue has a pic of a beetle trying to mate with the author's finger. I do not believe any hyrids were created. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
