FIELD
COCKROACH Loboptera decipiens
·
As
there is only limited reference material available to assist with the identification
of cockroaches (perhaps reflecting the fact that these are not the most popular
of insects!) this one with pale margins found in the South of France has been
provisionally identified as a Field Cockroach Loboptera
decipiens. It had been attracted to light
(i.e. it was sitting on a lit bulb at night) and this enabled a very clear
image to be obtained.
