Interesting critter.
Interesting critter. As cockroaches go the species seems relatively benign, but a recent import to the area. I haven't yet seen anything about them being toxic so the local birds are probably loving the "invasion".

One of my fav. species in the US! Looks like a freshly molted adult female :)

Ah, I should have paid closer attention to the location.
Perhaps I wouldn't have been so hasty in labeling it a nymph. :)
