Estoy traduciendo una solicitud de patente para un plaguicida. El ensayo consistía en poner cucarachas en unas cajas con diferentes sustratos para ver cuántas morían, cuántas se reproducían, etc.
Desde ya muchas gracias

cucarachas de estadio medio
I think "fase" replies to the period, whereas "estadio" the actual state of the bicho....
I think "mid" means that they are between eggs and adults i.e. "fase/s ninfa/s"
Newly hatched roaches, known as nymphs, are usually white. Shortly after birth, they turn brown, and their exoskeletons harden. They begin to resemble small, wingless adult roaches.
Nymphs molt several times as they become adults. The period between each molt is known as an instar. Each instar is progressively more like an adult cockroach. In some species, this process takes only a few weeks. In others, like the oriental cockroach, it takes between one and two years.

Here there is an explanation of "estadio".
