Although it is hard to see in this picture there is a mite that lives on this cockroach. The mite takes shelter on the cockroach and eats debris from around breathing pores on the body of the cockroach. The mite benefits from this relationship by getting food/shelter, while the cockroach benefits from cleaner breathing pores.
