Author's comments:
Hembra, la diferencia notoria está en los tarsos de las patas anteriores, en los machos son gruesos. Varios individuos en actividad desde la noche anterior, al día siguiente ni uno, como si se tratase de un evento de reproducción, se vieron más machos que hembras (3 o 4 veces más aproximadamente). Como no vuelan lejos y evidentemente son locales agrego marca de reproducción.
