P. scaber variability

Blatta
I’m digging the variability in this species. Now I have young running all over so I can see how the genetics work, sooner or later.

Oh nice! I thought the striped ones looked a little different. 
Yea, people always recommend differentiating these two species by counting the pairs of pleopodal lungs, but I tell you, I've never seen P.scaber with the type of mottling, texture, or presence of the two vertical stripes as seen on T.rathkii.
