Alimentary canal of cockroach is a long and somewhat coiled tube of uneven diameter. Crop is large, thin-walled, pear-shaped sac, which extends well up to the third or fourth abdominal segment. It is the largest part of foregut. Crop serves as a reservoir for storing food. The gizzard or proventriculus, marks the end of foregut. In the gizzard, the cuticular lining first forms 6 plates with teeth to grind the food, and then bears bristles to let only the well crushed food to pass on. Opening into the anterior end of midgut are 7 or 8 short, narrow, blindly ending hollow tubes, called enteric or hepatic caeca. These are internally lined by epithelium and secrete digestive enzymes. From the junction of midgut and hindgut arise 80 to 90 very narrow, thread-like, yellow-coloured blind tubules projecting freely into haemocoel. These are called Malpighian tubules and are excretory in function.
