It's not really possible to tell with immature or adult female and especially not with mature males. Adviced only to breed labeled probably but many across the pond have deliberately mixed these, so ironically, most hobby stock is probably a mix of the two anyway. They may not actually be different locality forms however but separate species altogether. DNA analysis awaits for that answer...
Yea I was like I wonder you think that’s me lol. I rehoused mine and it’s not even building sperm webs so my goal to ID is just for curiosity, no intentions of breeding him. I think subfusca but whatever. I have learned a good bit about identifying pokies so it’s not for nothing.
Highland are typically slightly smaller, longer reddish setae, more pronounced horizontal stripes on abdomen, darker carapace, and more defined pattern on the tarsus.
I can’t tell you from this MM pic but if you can post one of him before ultimate molt maybe we can help.
