Bought this girl a few months ago and she just gave me a molt. She was sold to me as a female but I can't seem to see a flap? Can someone help confirm if she's a male or female?
"She" is an Amazonius elenae.
That's indeed a female. Flaps (uterus externus + spermathecae) are not always superdark and clear, but you can generally spot spermathecae easily once they go dark and harden when the female matures. See those two little dark nubbins between the first pair of booklungs? Those are spermathecae. You should be able to take a toothpick and flick them back and forth.
She is very gorgeous!!! She was kind of a dark brownish before but it's lightened up to more of a tanish? And she's still got those gorgeous orange patterns on her abdomen. I think out of all my T's I can't wait to see her full-grown the most
