Dziriblatta is a genus of mostly Palaearctic cockroaches in the subfamily Ectobiinae, erected by Lucien Chopard in 1936. [1] For several decades synonymized with Lobolampra, the genus was returned to valid status by Bohn in 2019, [2] who provides information on its characteristics and differentiation from other genera, with a key to the subgenera. The species distribution includes: North Africa, the Iberian peninsula and associate Atlantic Ocean islands, with probably incomplete locality records to Cyprus and the Middle East. [3]
The Cockroach Species File [3] lists:
Giant cockroaches, or blaberids, are the second-largest cockroach family by number of species. Mostly distributed in warmer climates worldwide, this family is based on the American genus Blaberus, but much of the diversity is also found in Africa and Asia.
Ectobiidae is a family of the order Blattodea (cockroaches). This family contains many of the smaller common household pest cockroaches, among others. They are sometimes called wood cockroaches. A few notable species include:
Supella is a genus of cosmopolitan and wild cockroaches, in the family Ectobiidae: originating from Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.
Ectobius is a genus of non-cosmopolitan cockroaches once thought native to the Old World and described by Stephens in 1835, belonging to the family Ectobiidae, subfamily Ectobiinae. The discovery of 4 ectobius cockroaches in Colorado dating to 49 million years ago suggests the genus actually originated in North America. This genus has been subject to a number of revisions.
Gryllomorpha is a genus of cricket belonging to the family Gryllidae subfamily Gryllomorphinae. The species of this genus are present in Europe, in North Africa and in Central Asia.
Planuncus is a genus of cockroaches native to Old World described by Bohn in 2013 and belonging to the family Ectobiidae, subfamily Ectobiinae.
Planuncus tingitanus s.l. is a working title for any of the species belonging to the Planuncus tingitanus species group, of the cockroach genus Planuncus. As the exact status of some the species in this group can not be determined without more research, the whole species complex is referred to by the name of the oldest species in the group sensu lato.
Omocestus is a genus of 'short-horned grasshoppers' belonging to the family Acrididae subfamily Gomphocerinae.
The Pseudophyllodromiinae are a subfamily of cockroaches, in the family Ectobiidae, with a world-wide distribution.
Metioche is a genus of sword-tail crickets in the tribe Trigonidiini. Species have been found in tropical South America, Africa, Asia and Australia.
Tachycines is a genus of camel crickets in the subfamily Aemodogryllinae and tribe Aemodogryllini. Some authorities had placed the type species, T. asynamorus, in the genus Diestrammena, but recent papers returned this to the subgenus Tachycines (Tachycines), with a substantial number of new species recently described.
Gryllini is a tribe of crickets and typical of the family Gryllidae. Species are terrestrial, carnivorous or omnivorous and can be found in all continenents except Antarctica.
Euscyrtus is a genus of crickets in the subfamily Euscyrtinae. Species can be found mostly in Africa, Asia and Australia.
Odontura is a genus of bush crickets in the subfamily Phaneropterinae and typical of the tribe Odonturini. Species can be found in Africa and Europe.
Balta is a genus of cockroaches in the sub family Pseudophyllodromiinae. Found in Asia, Africa, Australia and Oceania. The genus was created in 1893 by Johann Tepper.
Sciobia is a genus of crickets in the family Gryllidae and monotypic tribe Sciobiini; it was erected by Hermann Burmeister in 1838. Species can be found in NW Africa and the Iberian peninsula.
Loboptera is a genus of mostly Palaearctic cockroaches erected by Carl Brunner von Wattenwyl in 1865; it appears to be currently placed in the subfamily Blattellinae. The recorded distribution for species includes: mainland Europe, North Africa, Cameroun, the Middle East through to central Asia.
Phyllodromica is a genus of mostly Palaearctic cockroaches in the subfamily Ectobiinae, erected by Franz Xaver Fieber in 1853. The recorded distribution for species includes: mainland Europe, North Africa, the Middle East through to central Asia.
Hemelytroblatta is a genus of mostly Palaearctic cockroaches, in the subfamily Corydiinae, erected by Lucien Chopard in 1929. Species are distributed mostly in: North Africa, eastern Mediterranean countries through to central Asia; the type species, Hemelytroblatta cypria is found only on Cyprus.
