Austral Ellipsidion Cockroach

A truly amazing cockroach. I believe that our First People's dot painting and artistic product is related to the environment. Happy!

  I spent the day in the upper mountains with my camera but had to come home to catch this in my front garden. Go figure.

The Austral Ellipsidion Cockroach

This Austral Ellipsidion Cockroach looks beautiful. Its body is orange-brown to dark brown with white patterns. Its thorax is dark brown with a good looking yellow around the edge. The cockroach adult is winged, with brown forewings covered the black and white abdomen. Male and female look almost the same. Nymphs have the similar body structure except wingless.
