Male
Antennae tufts = ♂
He looks a lot like this guy, from Florida.
Renia adspergillus: They can be much lighter in coloration, as well.

Renia adspergillus
Thanks Bob. I could not rule out R. aspergillus OR R. sobrialis from the very diverse photos available. Also, I did not know if the antennae tufts were a diagnostic species characteristic our common in the genera. Thanks again.
