Ivory-Head Roach
Eublaberus distanti
The ivory-head roach is a large Eublaberus maintained as a feeder and in specialist collections. The trade name covers stock associated with Eublaberus distanti, whose identification has been discussed by breeders. Adults and bulky, burrowing nymphs use organic substrate and sheltered retreats. Captive colonies need ventilation, a moisture gradient and varied food. Females retain their egg cases and release live young. Reliable breeding records matter when distinguishing it from related Eublaberus in culture.
