smaller invasive German cockroaches

That's cute. Been to New Jersey ever? They're 3 goddamned inches long in 07306.

Coming out under the basement door to the shared laundry in the hot august heat and falling over, 'dead' from the heat shock, only to revive later and wander off...

They might be varying in size by location but those might be American Cockroaches you are seeing. Usually they are something like this in size and frequency of flying varies by type. Not sure if there is inter species breedability or not, or I imagine we'd have 10,000 breeds. I think they are intentionally pulling antennas and legs "in" to make them all appear smaller in this image.
