Can't get it much easier anto... (which makes it a very good picture too Smile ). look at the vertical rows of hairs over the eyes, the very dark tarsae and femora, the reddish spots on the abdomen, the dark pterostigm with a bit of blackish cloud over the wing, the broad black stripe over the face, the strong dusting of the thorax...
That makes it a perfect tenax female.
