Sexing Arizona Unicorn

[Meiji]

For some species I can tell just by looking, but not with my Arizona Unicorns. How many segments is each gender's abdomen? I have a sub-sub adult (over 1 inch long) I would like to sell and wish to sex it first.

Thanks.

6 for females and 8 for males..

Camera focuses on the wingbuds, but I guess it will help

Subadult female

Subadult male

Same as on every other mantis. These may be a bit harder to tell due to the shape of the abdomen.

This is off topic but i just wanted to ask. How many times does a male molt and how many times does a female molt?

Sometimes the female molts 1 extra time. Generally they both molt 6 times.
