Judging from the size of those pedipalps, I'd say it's a male. 1 0 Ian Luyten August 6, 2019 Troy Straub Thanks ! I googled a bit after the differences between male and female specimen of the species, I think you're right. It was also quite small, I would have expected it bigger. The females are bigger than males according to what I found. 0 0
