It’s interesting. The translucent margins of the prothorax and anterior portion 
of the wings are indicative of a wood roach, but the size is too small. Adults 
are at least 3/4” and the scale shows them to be perhaps 1/3”. Are you sure the 
scale is accurate?

Actually the classification of a wood roach is Superfamily 
Blaberoidea<https://bugguide.net/node/view/601958/tree>, Family Ectobiidae, 
Subfamily Blattellinae, Genus Parcoblatta (Wood Cockroaches). These have been 
commonly encountered roaches. German roach would be in this subfamily, too. 
Oriental cockroach in Superfamily 
Blattoidea<https://bugguide.net/node/view/601959/tree>, Family 
Blattidae<https://bugguide.net/node/view/31605/tree>. However, I'm not sure the 
unknown is a wood roach.

Hi Michael,

I looks for me like the roaches-family „Ectobiinae„. Guest from outside (trees)

And not Germanica or Orentalis...

Hi,

I'm wondering if someone can confirm my fear that these are in fact a German 
adult and two nymphs.

They were found in a loading dock area on three separate traps, in opposite 
corners of the room, April 1 - July 1.  The loading dock is part of a newly 
refurbished building and has some leaky spots to the outside that we haven't 
been able to address yet.  I've been monitoring the space since the fall, and 
this is the first I've seen of them.

Thanks,
Mike
