🪳🤩 Prettiest Cockroach Ever?! 🪳🤩
Creepy. Disgusting. Ugly.
I think we can all agree these are some words fitting to describe all cockroaches. Well not all! Turns out there are a few pretty ones.
Just check this bugger out that I stumbled upon today:
Not bad for a cockroach! It really is pretty!
Scientifically described as Polyzosteria mitchelli, it's commonly known as Mitchell's diurnal cockroach or the Mardi Gras cockroach.
Like many weird critters, it's from kangarooland, occuring in semi-arid areas of Western and South Australia and the New South Wales.
It belongs to a group of cockroaches known as bush cockroaches. Most of the bush species are nocturnal but Polyzosteria mitchelli is actually diurnal, about 4 cm long and wingless.
I did some googling on them, other than their striking blue and yellow colors there's really not much else interesting to say about the species...
Unfortunately I couldn't find any videos to include in the post but you can find more pics with a bit of googling. Just search for the scientific or common name :D
Who would thought that a cockroach could be so pretty 🤩 😍
Ok, I hope you enjoyed discovering yet another wonder of nature with me. See you soon with more :D

that is interesting...I got a certain type of disgusting by the cockroach that I got used in Brazil, but other types of cockroaches don't create the same repulsiveness on me lol
Which one?!

Thanks
we got those called "earth pig" who looks very similar, but those ones are crustaceans and not cockroach
Oz has the best beasts!
A cockroach is a cockroach, I’d smash that little fucker with a bat.
A bat?
It's indeed the prettiest cockroach. It's got pretty colors but still creepy crawly. 🤢
!BBH
!pimp
It's weirdly cute imo
!pimp
Madre mía que bichó más raro jj, lo bueno son las tomas fotográficas que lograste sacar están geniales @trumpman 👌.
Jamás lo había visto. Gracias por compartir con la comunidad hive, aprendí de la especie 👏.
Saludos y linda noche de jueves amigo !! 😉🙏🏻!!
It may look pretty from the outside, but I'm still disgusted by what's inside 😖
😅😂
!pimp
Even the nastiest creatures can have pretty outliers :D
😁😁😁
!pimp !bbh
It's still a cockroach. I don't think I can like it even if it looks better than the rest.
Come on, it's pretty!
Never seen such a colorful cockroach!
Their attempts to intimidate and silence their critics are equally concerning. The use of downvotes as a means of censorship is a clear indication of their desperation to maintain their grip on the narrative. But it's not working

The Hive community has been plagued by a rise in spam accounts sharing stolen content. Many of these accounts appear to be linked to a single super farm that we've exposed @memesandstuff superfarm and we believe a prominent whale may be behind it
A Call to Action Against Downvote Abuse on Hive
Bad downvotes on Hive are a growing concern that must be addressed. These downvotes not only discourage users from sharing their real thoughts and ideas but also damage the community as a whole, we see many walk away

The Buildawhale farm scam has been a topic of concern for us, and we've exposed it. However, despite our attempts to bring attention to this issue, it seems that no concrete actions have been taken to address it. This lack of response is puzzling
Let's discuss a more serious issue that affects all on Hive. The prevalence of bad downvotes on Hive is a major concern, and we urge you to speak up if you've been affected by it. Don't be afraid to share your experiences speak up
that's a very different color there, from a good species.
well I wasnt sure i would ever say this but it is a pretty cockroach LOL
!pimp
Strange insect, but it looks very beautiful. You found it which is your luck and shared which is a contribution, thanks for the scientific post.
Not the egggg, hanging like that 😤
But I do agree that´s a premium cockroach, I´ve never seen it before.
This is incredible! I'd never seen this kind of cockroach in my whole life. What kind of cockroach is this? I'd love to learn more about this kind of species.
Thanks for sending me to Google. There's a pet for everyone, I guess. There is a whole universe out there of cockroach aficionados. In this roach community, it is much regretted that Australia will not allow the exportation of the critters!! Can you imagine finding one walking across your kitchen floor? Fortunately they probably wouldn't survive even if a roach fanatic imported them and they escaped.
Not pretty to me at all😂. Nice colors...on something else, not a roach.
Yes.. very beautiful. reminds me of a caterpillar. 😊☕
Very cool cockroach you found there. It's still just a roach though when it comes down to it, and at least it doesn't have wings so it can fly!
!PIMP
I'm not a fan of cockroaches, but I guess they must fill a niche in the ecosystem somehow, so the world probably needs them.
Or maybe they're just Earth's insurance policy for if humans blow the world into a radioactive slagheap.
Wow nice animal
