    Eek, these can be tough to determine species! Do you have any shots of it's ventral surface. Or, any close-ups/cealr shots of its behind? Posted 6 years ago

      So difficult. I do not have any shots of the ventral side, but I have a vague memory of the ventral surface (no idea why i didn't photograph it urggh).

      The shots I DO have:
