Is there a list available of the roaches that are endemic to Southern Africa?

That woud be a great species to have.

Try using George's species file, I tried but I don't mesh well with that search program.

Wow! That kind of reminds me of a Lucihormetica sp. nymph. I wonder if they're easy to find. Good find, Orin.

That is Aptera fusca, not sure how easy it is to find in South Africa but they are not in the hobby anywhere (much to my own dismay!)

That's a lovely specimen! If you find any others, please let me know...

What makes a roach... a roach, Orin? We have zillions of bugs here, but I never know which are which! :lol:
