Yeah I know what you mean :D I have 2 males probably around the same size as your and they look identical to your ventral pics. My female(atleast with mine) looks totally different.

Book lungs are pretty far apart but the nitch pointing upward screams male to me.

Hello robc It does look male to me also, How big is it? I have one that is 3.5 in and it doesn't have that dot patch of hairs that yours has.

Yeah, thats pretty much what I look for first because in the past the book-lungs has failed. Who knows though maybe others will disagree with me/us.

I wanna say female. I think, I have a male roughly the same size as that and the arch seems more pronounced. I can grab a pic later for comparison, if you want.
