I don't think you can sex P. metallica dorsally.

Anyone saying male or female is simply guessing. To get an answer based on science. get a ventral shot man. No sexual organs can be viewed from a dorsal shot.

It's pretty easy sexing P. metallicas by their abdomen stripe (or lack thereof) at that size. That's a female.

What To get a answer based on science maybe you should use a microscope and by the way that's a female 99% just with the colors.

Yeah, thats a gorgeous female. And its easy to sex P. metallicas from the top. They have more dark, blue colors, and yes, the abdomen looks different!
