Forest Roach (Blaberidae)

Tiputini Forest Reserve, Prov. Orellana, Ecuador

Members of the forest roach family Blaberidae are morphologically diverse, and most are large species. Blaberus giganteus (preceding image) grows to very large body lengths; others, like this unidentified species on a leaf at night, are robust and heavy-bodied.
