Oh well.Back to the study guides.
So what are you guys looking at,that made up your minds on this.
Trenor,KezyGLA,can you pinpoint what you focused in on.
This will help us.I will appreciate it.
@mack1855 I'm no expert by any means and it helps to see the molt in person so I know how big it is. The older the T the darker the females spermathecae is making it easier to pick out.
The small red line is the split. The thick line red zone above that is where the spermathecae would be located. The lack of a spermathecae means it's a male. If the Ts is the size I believe it to be, the spermathecae should be large and dark. Which would make it easier to pick out.
In contrast, here is the same mark up on my 0.1 P.met. Note the goldish twin peeks which is the spermathecae in the thick red zone. This shows it to be a female. The spermathecae can be lots of different shapes depending on the species but should always be located in this zone.
