The Female

The female is large and predominately brown in colour on both the thorax and the abdomen. However, the easy way to identify this species, is the yellow thoracic stripes, which are highly prominent, as well as the markings along the abdomen. The end segments are white/brown and the caudal appendages are large and black.
