Wood Roach? - Pycnoscelus surinamensis

Wood Roach? - Pycnoscelus surinamensis
New Orleans, Louisiana, USA
July 7, 2008
Size: inch
Found on side of church where we were making repairs. What's with the thing on the posterior?

No.
This is an adult Surinam cockroach. Looks like debris stuck to the posterior, not part of the insect, certainly.

 
gotcha
Thanks a lot Eric.
