Two of these cockroaches were found with sighting Laxta friedmani (Friedman's trilobite cockroach) identified as Laxta friedmani, I am wondering now if this sighting is the same species, or just the usual bark cockroach. Worth a second look? @MichaelMulvaney

Yes worth a relook Trevor but I think this is a female or nymph and I am not confident to tell the Laxta species apart except for the males
