My robustum was on his back 2 nights ago and then yesterday finished molting without a hitch, as far as I can tell. I can't get down to remove the exuvium yet so I'm just gonna let him continue to rest, and maybe get it out tomorrow.
Do I know for sure its a male?....nope, just a guess. I bought "him" unsexed about 1 1/2 yrs ago. Its just a really great looking T I know that!
Here's one clear pic out of the 1/2 dozen I took:

I found him like this on 6-07-09:


Here he is last night, only pic that was clear enough to see:

Yayyyy-he's still has all his original parts, just a little bigger!

Awesome shots! Any idea/guess as to how big this molt puts him at? I've got an immature M. robustum that looks ventrally similar to yours. Like you, i'm waiting for him to molt to be sure as well.

Beautiful specimen.

I just love how vibrant the coloring is on a freshly molted T. :D
