''Blaberus'' is a genus of cockroaches generally found in South America. About 10 species are in the ''Blaberus'' genus, and they are popular among hobbyists as feed for other arthropods (''Blaberus discoidalis'' in particular serves this function) or as pets. Unlike several genera of cockroaches considered to be pests, this genus keeps its ootheca in its abdomen until the time it hatches. They generally require a relative humidity of 60% or higher to thrive and temperatures above 25°C (28-30°C is best) to reproduce. ''B. giganteus'' is one of the world's longest roaches. ''B. craniifers popular name, "death's head roach" is often attributed to ''B. discoidalis'', as well. This genus contains these species: * ''Blaberus affinis'' Jurberg, Albuquerque, Rebordoes, Goncalves & Felip * ''Blaberus anisitsi'' Brancsik 1898 * ''Blaberus asellus'' (Thunberg 1826) * ''Blaberus atropos'' (Stoll 1813) * ''Blaberus boliviensis'' Princis 1946 * ''Blaberus brasilianus'' Saussure 1864 * ''Blaberus colosseus'' (Illiger 1801) * ''Blaberus craniifer'' Burmeister, 1838 * ''Blaberus discoidalis'' Serville, 1839 * ''Blaberus duckei'' Jurberg, Albuquerque, Rebordoes, Goncalves & Felip * ''Blaberus fusiformis'' Walker, F., 1868 * ''Blaberus giganteus'' (Linnaeus, 1758) * ''Blaberus latissimus'' (Herbst 1786) * ''Blaberus matogrossensis'' Rocha e Silva & Aguiar 1977 * ''Blaberus minor'' Saussure 1864 * ''Blaberus parabolicus'' Walker, F., 1868 * ''Blaberus paulistanus'' Lopes & de Oliveira 2000 * ''Blaberus peruvianus'' Jurberg, Albuquerque, Rebordoes, Goncalves & Felip * ''Blaberus scutatus'' Saussure & Zehntner 1894 == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Blaberus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
