Help with ID? In Ohio.

Ohio. I have found two different cockroaches in upstairs bathroom. One appears to have wings (first two pictures) and was slightly larger. The first was found during the day walking on the floor, the second (third picture) was found at night on the floor. They were both black or dark brown.

I think they are not German roaches, but may be Oriental? If you can ID, can you help me tell which features help you identify? I have a hard time to differentiate Oriental roaches from wood cockroaches.

We seem to find them occasionally when it is warm outside. I haven't seen any in the winter months yet. We have been in this house for nearly two years and over time I have seen a total of perhaps 6-8 roaches like these. Last time I posted a photo, was informed that it is Parcoblatta sp.

Thank you!
