Lobster Roach/Speckled Roach - Nauphoeta cinerea -

Tucson, Pima County, Arizona, USA
May 18, 2017

I was asked to upload this photo here by a Bug Group I used to help me identity this guy. He came in inside a box of dry good supplies at the shop I work at in Tucson, AZ. He was not released per instructions. Size estimated at 20mm.
