Domino Roach

Tropics·Invertebrate

The domino roach is a unique looking species of cockroach, with a distinct black body topped with small white spots. It is believed that this coloring is meant to mimic an aggressive species of ground beetle native to the same area as the domino roach. They are mainly found in scrub forest habitats where they sometimes burrow under leaves during the day.
