Austral Ellipsidion Cockroach nymph

Ellipsidion australe

Notes:

A young cockroach in our vegie patch. Here's what they look like as adults: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/901.... This spotting was early last year; I think my husband Nathan might have taken this series of pics.

I have never seen this kind. I don't like cockroach, but this one is nice looking. Nice series.
