Diploptera punctata or Pacific beetle cockroach is a species of cockroach in the family Blaberidae, subfamily Diplopterinae. It is one of the few cockroach species which are viviparous. They also produce a nutritionally dense crystalline "milk" for their young. Adults are chemically defended, having a modified tracheal gland and spiracle on each side which squirts quinones which can poison or discourage a predator.
