Same place as i found them a few years ago, except this time they were found underneath the bark of a living paperback tree.

I know i identified them as this species last time, but Im still not 100% sure its correct as I haven't been able to see an adult yet. Still, the patterning is by far the best match I can find. It'd be nice if someone more expert in cockroaches could give us an opinion.
