What insect is this?
Hi, can someone tell me what is this insect?

I agree that the picture is probably the head and part of the wings of an adult German cockroach. The poppy seeds you are seeing might be the nymphs. These are the main species found in restaurants. These insects like to hide in cracks and crevices, don't like light, and really like kitchen scraps/cooking trash. Sanitation, baiting, treating and sealing hiding places, and exclusion are important management techniques.

Why did insects never evolve (or grow) to sizes more than about 10 to 12 inches long (and, even more strictly no more than an inch or two in diameter)?
