Very interesting cockroach. I think it's probably an Ectoneura sp. But I don't have enough info to identify this one to species.

Ectobiidae (family)

I agree it's not Neotartessus flavipes.
Protartessus nynganensis is a possibility - see https://idtools.dpi.nsw.gov.au/keys/leafhop/species/pnynganensis.htm - but I haven't found any images of the live insect.

Neotartessus flavipes

I’m inclined to think this may be a B. Minus. May need to wait until it gets a bit bigger.
