This is a cockroach, but is not a nymph. It is an adult female. See the following - same species http://bugguide.net/node/view/87476/bgimage

I have sent some specimens to a specialist (of the few that exist!), and I think an answer (species name) should be coming soon. It is definitely not a native species.

Thanks for the info. The link was helpful. I'll look forward to the next posting if the expert can get us further in this mystery.

raoch nymph

The posterior morphology
is definitely that of a roach. In this photo we can see some rather out-of-focus antennae but have no clue as to their length due to the close cropping. Antennae can be lost in scuffles with other creatures. They may also be tucked under the edge of the body and be hidden from view (not the case here).
