On cockroaches of the subfamily Epilamprinae (Dictyoptera: Blaberidae) from South India and Sri Lanka, with descriptions of new taxa Author Anisyutkin, Leonid N. text Zootaxa 2014 2014-08-08 3847 3 301 332 journal article http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.3847.3.1 624e0a0e-4766-436b-a552-8aad3b411999 1175-5326 253194 19E58554-5B31-496B-B851-A26DEE4B7929 Genus Opisthoplatia Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1865 Type species : Polyzosteria orientalis Burmeister, 1838 . By subsequent designation. Note . The genus Opisthoplatia includes two species ( Beccaloni 2007 ): the widespread O. orientalis and O. beybienkoi Anisyutkin, 2005 known only from the Mindoro Island of the Philippines ( Anisyutkin 2005 ). The range of O. orientalis includes India , Indochina peninsula, Java, China and Japan ( Princis 1967 ; Beccaloni 2007 ). I have never seen specimens of O. orientalis from India or Sri Lanka ; it is likely to be an invasive species in these countries. The morphology of O. orientalis was described by Anisyutkin ( 1999 ) .
