Liberiblattinidae is an extinct family of cockroaches known from the Jurassic to Cretaceous. Some taxa, like Cryptoblatta and Hydrokhoohydra, are suggested to be semiaquatic.[1] Spongistoma is suggested to be a nectarivore due to its unique sucking/sponging "proboscis" mouthparts.[2] Some authors have suggested that the family is ancestral to Mantodea.[3]
