MarthamSMEEHover2040623-1-NEF_DxO_DeepPRIME

MarthamSMEEHover2040623-2-NEF_DxO_DeepPRIME

Males of P frutetorum have a long haired tubercle on the hind femur.

This one does not have the tubercle BUT males and females are a bit more tricky to identify as the eyes of both sexes do not meet on the top of the head.

Then you need to check the shape of the genital area. Tapered in females.

In this case I don't think the genital area is tapered so possible an example of P versicolor.
