guess i just made a lier out of myself.... about to button things up when i stumbled across this image - yet ANOTHER abdominal pattern (there's still one common one around here that i haven't photographed yet) !!!! is there no end to them ???? or did i guess wrong on the id? thanks, ted

They
vary from juvenile to adult, as the coloration and pattern often change. Hartmut recently posted images of a typical (red) adult female. The brown and tan adult females seem to be less common.

 
thanks...
jeff, i REALLY appreciate this information.... after all, we're never too old to learn something new (cranking sixty here, but i hope not at least).... thanks again, ted
