    I'm not very good at identifying AFS species (something i really need to learn) but it does look to be a male. C. Gracilis is definitely female. Males will have a noticeably longer metasoma.

    I agree that the C gracilus is a female.

    C. gracilis is female.
    AFS is male, judging by pincher being notched.

    Before I order a male to pair with her can you tell wether this female is indeed an adult?
