Eublaberus distanti, known as the Six-spotted cockroach, Four-spotted cockroach, Four-spot cockroach, or Trinidad bat-cave cockroach, is a primarily cave-dwelling Central and South American cockroach of the genus Eublaberus (Hebard, 1920) and named after William Lucas Distant.
Nymphs turn a dark brown, and the common name “six spotted cockroach” refers to six yellow spots along the sides of the nymph. Adults of both genders have wings but do not fly. They grow to approximately 6.4 cm (2.5 in) in length. Males are generally smaller than females, with longer wings, and a small rear sternite compared to females.
