Maybe it does not look exactly the same because it was curled up when you took the shot.

wat u see from wikipedia is only certain breed...

the next nearest insect u can compare with is beetles but from the body, it is for sure not a beetle.
or the next nearest is stink bugs but from the body, it is for sure not one cause stink bug got a broad, wide-body.

it is easily identify by the segment of the body as the sound is being release from the gaps. Thats how I determined it is a hissing cockroach;D

pls correct me if i am wrong..
i still learning..
