The Cockroach species file records for genus Pycnoscelus:
Giant cockroaches, or blaberids, are the second-largest cockroach family by number of species.
Blattidae is a cockroach family in the order Blattodea containing several of the most common household cockroaches. Notable species include:
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:
Anisolabis is a genus of mostly Asian earwigs in the subfamily Anisolabidinae. It was cited by Srivastava in Part 2 of Fauna of India. The name Anisolabis stems from the asymmetry of the male cerci; the right cercus being more acute than the left.
Euborellia is a genus of earwigs in the subfamily Anisolabidinae. This genus, which has a world-wide distribution, was erected by Malcolm Burr in 1909 and was cited by Srivastava in Part 2 of Fauna of India.
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.
Pseudophoraspis is a genus of cockroaches.
Neostylopyga is a genus of cockroaches described by Robert Walter Campbell Shelford in 1911. Some of the species are strikingly coloured and patterned and are popular in cultures under the common name harlequin roaches or harlequin cockroaches.
Symploce is a genus of cockroach in the family Ectobiidae.
Haania is the type genus of Asian praying mantids in the new (2019) family Haaniidae. They are recorded from: southern China (Hainan), Indo-China and the Philippines.
Xiphidiopsis is a genus of bush crickets in the subfamily Meconematinae. Species have been recorded from: India, China, Japan, Indochina, Malesia, and islands in the Indian Ocean and Pacific.
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.
Anaplecta is a genus in the family Anaplectidae. There are at least 20 described species in Anaplecta.
Diplatys is a genus of Asian earwigs, in the family Diplatyidae, erected by Jean Guillaume Audinet-Serville in 1831. The recorded distribution of species is from Indochina, although this may be incomplete; it is also worth noting that other genera in subfamily Diplatyinae and the genus Haplodiplatys historically have been placed here.
Panesthia is a large genus of burrowing giant cockroach in the subfamily Panesthiinae. It is subsocial and its species are mainly found in Southeast Asia, coastal East Asia, Australasia, and Indo-Malaysia.
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.
Dziriblatta is a genus of mostly Palaearctic cockroaches in the subfamily Ectobiinae, erected by Lucien Chopard in 1936. For several decades synonymized with Lobolampra, the genus was returned to valid status by Bohn in 2019, 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.
Corydidarum is a genus of Asian cockroaches in the subfamily Perisphaerinae, erected by Carl Brunner von Wattenwyl in 1865. The recorded distribution is central Africa, India, China, SE Asia through to New Guinea.
