Periplaneta fuliginosa
Dark brown cockroach about 2 1/2 inches long with wings.
I found it outside my house by my porch light.
Hi metreebug! This is a beautiful Cockroach.
However, I believe this is a Smokey Brown Cockroach.
Oriental Cockroaches do not have full length wings. The females have only rudimentary wings and the males have wings that only cover 3/4 of body length (as per Bugguide):
