Avicularia avicularia 2.5" DLS

The epigastric furrow area is more distinct than I'd expect from a male, but I'm not having much luck detecting a flap that would definitively indicate female. But I may have shredded the flap by accident--hard to tell, it's very small. Toothpick for scale
Avics have pretty unique spermathecae - 2 long & twisted lobes. They're hard to miss, so I've got to say this is a male.

Darn! Though actually, I thought I'd seen some thin pieces coming off of the spermathecae area, which is what made me think I'd shredded it.
Took another look at the molt this morning and I think I am seeing a (pretty distinct) flap now... now I don't know what to think!
