Giant Cave Cockroach Nymph

Blaberus giganteus (nymph)

Giant Cave Cockroach Nymph

The nymph lives in humid caves, hollow logs, and deep leaf litter where it stays hidden in cracks during the day. It is wingless and scavenges on decaying plant matter, fungi, and rich droppings such as bat guano. Its soft new cuticle hardens after each molt, and repeated molting gradually builds the broad adult body.
