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.
