Found on the fly wire door on the outside of my patio. Some wonderful patterns on the back of this insect. Not a native Cockroach but different from the big black ones occasionally found inside at this time of year. German cockroach (Blattella germanica)

Therea petiveriana, Family: Polyphagidae
Therea petiveriana, variously called the "desert cockroach", "seven-spotted cockroach" or "Indian domino cockroach", is a species of crepuscular (active only during dawn/dusk) cockroach found in southern India. They are members of a basal group within the cockroaches. This somewhat roundish and contrastingly marked cockroach is mainly found on the ground in scrub forest habitats where they may burrow under leaf-litter or loose ground during the heat of the day.
Like other cockroaches, they use chemical pheromones to communicate with each other. When disturbed, they are said to raise their wings and evert lateral glands, which is their alarm/alert notification.
The species has been said to be one of the few cockroaches with "grace and beauty"
This species is popular as a pet in many parts of the world and are easy to keep.

Not a hissing cockroach but definitely a strange type of cockroach that seemed to carry it's ootheca (egg sack) under its abdomen.
Many people don't realise that Britain has a few native species of cockroach. They are all small & mostly limited to the south coast counties. Lesser cockroach is the smallest of them, males averaging 7mm long & females just 6mm. Coastal shingle is a known habitat for them & it was nice to turn a few up under the pebbles. They are the first native cockroaches I've ever seen.
Another from my Beasties Series
This little cockroach had shed its shell so was a lovely golden colour.

These large native cockroaches are always a pleasure to find.
They are approx 40mm long and are widespread in the South West of Western Australia and a few sightings in South Australia and Victoria.
The colour of them varies in different areas.
David Rentz describes this cockroach as "One of the most distinctive and widespread species in the genus.
The 'windows' on each thoracic segment and the blue legs are not shared by any other species."
"A Guide to the Cockroaches of Australia" David Rentz 2014
"Feeding and diet
Native cockroaches feed in trees on pollen, bark and leaf material. Some species in the genus Panesthia have adapted to eating decomposing wood, and have similar micro-organisms in their gut as those found in termites (Order Isoptera)." australian.museum/learn/animals/insects/native-cockroache...

The Madagascar cockroach (Gromphadorhina portentosa) is one of the largest cockroaches in the world, reaching 6 to 8 cm in length. Native to Madagascar, it is famous for its distinctive defensive hissing sound. It is a docile, wingless species, often kept as a pet or food.
Thank you all for visits, comments & faves :)
Cockroaches, to most westerners, are synonomous with filth. However, the blattodea are a diverse, adaptable and fascinating order, not to be painted and tarnished with the same brush as a few isolated species (whose invasive introduction you can thank your forebears by the way). They can be beautiful, colourful and their role as detritivores in the rainforest is hugely important. These underappreciated and reviled insects will be the focus of an upcoming blog post.

Prosevania fuscipes (Illiger, 1807)
Milan is full of Oriental cockroaches (Blatta orientalis) and therefore it is also the place for ensign wasps (Evaniidae). As far as known to science, evaniids are all parasitoids on the eggs of cockroaches. Characteristic of the group is the short gaster that is laterally compressed and held in a flaglike manner and resembling an ensign.
