Yes it is the same species. Leucophaea maderae and Rhyparobia maderae are synonym. Its the same species with a different name. It was originally described by Fabricius as Blatta maderae.
There is (still) some discussion about what the valid name is. AFAIK Rhyparobia is a isogenic synonym of Leucophaea, and Leucophaea maderae is the valid name. The genus Leucophaea was described previous to Rhyparobia, but no type species was assigned (Brunner 1865 describing the genus as subgenus of Panchlora). One of the four species assigned to Leucophaea was Fabricius's B. maderae. Then Rhyparobia was described with the type species B. maderae (F.) assigned to it (Krauss 1893). 1903 there was a publication with Leucophaea and the taxon maderae being assigned as type species (Rehn 1903). One year later Kirby designated, obviously not knowing about Rehn's paper, Blatta surinamensis as type species of Leucophaea.
I can't find the reference where i got this from right now. Its an older one, pre 1950's i think.

What species has the same karyotype?
maybe all species have the same karyotype;/
What is a group of related species are in the same?
A group of closely related species would share the same genus.
What group of organisms can mate and produce fertile offspring?
They are members of the same species.
Community can contain two populations of the same species?
It's can contain the two population of the same species and can reproduce
What is a group of similar organisms that interbreed in nature?
If a group of organisms cannot be interbreed, and create fertile offspring, thent hey are separate species. If the can be interbreed, and the offspring can also interbreed, then they are different sub-species, or phases of the same species.
Are Nessie and Champ the same species?
no they are not the same species
Organisms that can mate and produce fertile offspring belong to the same what?
They are considered to be in the same species.
What species has the same karyotype?
maybe all species have the same karyotype;/
Are lions and tigers from the same species?
No, lions and tigers are not from the same species. Lions are of the species Panthera leo, while tigers are of the species Panthera tigris. They are both part of the Panthera genus, but belong to different species.
Are tigers and lions the same species?
No, they are different species but belong to the same genus of Panthera.
Can competition exist between the same or different species?
Members of the same or different species.
Are foxes and wolves the same species?
No, but they both belong to the canid family.
Members of the same species will be expected to?
Members of the same species can breed and produce viable offspring that will, when mated with others of the same species, also produce viable offspring.
Organisms that are similar in structure and form and successfully interbreed belong to the same family?
They will belong to either the same family or species.
What determines whether two species are in the same genus?
Two species are typically placed in the same genus based on shared physical characteristics, genetic similarities, and common evolutionary ancestry. Taxonomists consider a combination of these factors when determining the classification of species into different genera.
What is a group of related species are in the same?
A group of closely related species would share the same genus.
Is family and species the same?
No, family and species are not the same. In the classification system, species is the most specific level and represents individual organisms that share similar traits and can interbreed. Family is a higher taxonomic rank that groups similar species together based on a common ancestor.
