Is this a Dubia or Discoid?

I was sold what was labeled as discoid roaches at a show recently. I talked to the lady before purchasing, and she said the adult males had another molt to go through still, which is why they were small. I have had dubia colonies for years and this guy looks exactly like my males, do discoids actually look like this before they molt or did I get conned? I tried googling pictures of the younger males but couldn't find anything.

Looks like an adult male Dubia to me; discoids are noticeably different (as you have already recognized it seems). All discoids will have wings too.

Thanks,

That's a dubai.

You got got scammed, and of course it was a show. Good luck with the Dubai's.

Thanks, I knew it was a possibility, luckily they were about the same price as the dubias other venders were selling so I didn't lose out on much -_-

Didn't know the adult females of discoids had wings too, that's cool! And thanks, I had a feeling they were when I bought em but the price was so similar to the dubias other venders had I didn't care too much, still disappointing
