vossner,

That is not a beetle, but a cockroach. It is the Pale Bordered Field Cockroach (Pseudomops septentrionalis): http://bugguide.net/node/view/7856

That species had no entry in BugFiles, so I have created one here: http://davesgarden.com/guides/bf/go/6468/
and we would be pleased if you would add your picture to that page. You will find a » Upload an image of this bug link towards the bottom of that page.
