Omitting common names "bat cave cockroach" and "red-headed cockroach"[edit]

"Bat cave cockroach" seems to be used for the species only by the Cincinnati Zoo, and globalspecies.org suggests that "bat cave cockroach" applies to the genus, while "Trinidad bat cave cockroach" refers to the species. Neither of these are that reliable as sources, but as common names are not about scientific facts, my own threshold for reliable sources is lowered. Still, with one weak source, and another weak source contesting it, it doesn't seem worthy of inclusion.

"Red-headed cockroach" I can only find one weak source, and the name is used by various other weak sources for other species of cockroaches.
