Yours is still a nymph. When it reaches adult hood it will look like:

Great job!
I don't know how I missed this before. Too many emails I guess...

An image (or three) showing a nyphal Piezogaster calcarator (more found here) with adults is certainly a welcome addition to the guide.

I also place a thumbnail on the Information page of the Piezogaster nymphs (link above).
