Rhabdoblattella is a genus of South East Asian cockroaches in the family Blaberidae, erected by L.N. Anisyutkin in 1999.[1] It was subsequently placed in the monotypic subfamily Rhabdoblattellinae[2] (it had been placed previously in the Epilamprinae) from which the species R. annamensis had been transferred from the similar genus Rhabdoblatta. Species records are from Indochina and China.[3]
