N. carapoensis - M or F?

Specimen is about 2.5 inches DLS after molting.
Are you able to move and manipulate with this mouse-eared shape?
If you can - then you've got a female
 
I'm not sure, as the molt is tiny and 3 weeks old at this point, but I did see the shape you outlined and was hoping that meant female. Thanks for your feedback!

im thinking - If this was a male,i don't think there would be a shape to wonder about to begin with :lol:
Weirdly enough i cant find any N.carapoensis spermathecae reference image,so if this IS female,this will be a nice resource to go back to.
