Thank you, thank you everyone, I'd like to take this moment to express how proud, and also grateful, I am to have this opportunity to display my beautiful young girl in public. Now I must go, we have some swimsuit shopping to do.

Hi everyone! Does anyone know how big a T has to be before you can sex it using the visual EF method? The article says 2nd-3rd instar, but does sexing it using this method at that size require some serious skills?

I have a 4th (about an inch) instar P. irminia that has made me realize how impatient I am!

Thanks!

I would say ventral sexing of Ts becomes accurate/reliable at around 1.5"-2" LS.

Super Kyle. I wish there were pics like those for every species.

Dear Kyle, you fail at many other things, but I must say this is a success.

Sorry for the craptacular pictures, but this little one doesn't hold still for long. It's an A. versicolor, about 3.25". I'm thinking (hoping) female.

And some OBTs.

OBT 1

OBT 2

Bumpification!

Any opinions on the above Ts? I also have some more pictures of the A. versicolor, not any better than the above pictures, though.

Thanks!

Both of those OBTs look female to me: you can see a definite epigastric furrow on them both.

Thanks Celeste! I highly suspected both to be female. One of these went to Vincent at the last BBQ, so he'll be happy to hear that.
