There are two specimens here, the first is a female and the others males.

Hmm... I might be mistaken but it looks like one male specimen to me. The position of the legs is identical in all photos and the antenna is just visible in the first photo and, while partially hidden, it appears to be the same as in the other photos.

Maybe I'm being fooled, but I thought the antenna was norrower.
