ID reference?
How did you determine the genus and species? There's no links or info in the Guide pages you created - did Andy Hamilton identify this one?

 
Sort of....
Andy Hamilton ID'd photo 16878...and this is based on that one.

Nice discussion of those waxy spots here

 
Thanks
I had read that discussion at some point, so I knew this was a female, but I was too lazy to go searching and link it. :)
