Sexing this Pandinus pair

[mantisfan101]

Was sold to me as a sexed pair but I always like to double check and now I’m straight up confused. I think 2 males based off of pectin count, but the pectines themselves do look different with one compared to another. Was hoping that someone else had some insight. Thanks in advance.

Suspect male-



suspect female(???)

I seem to think that yes those are correct based on the genital operculum shape of each

Aside from the operculum you can also tell that the pectine "feathers" are a good amount longer on the male and the wings are larger in volume and also longer in length.

I did notice that after re-examining the photos today. I think then it would be safe to say I have a pair(?)
