adult male
probably femurrubrum, but would want to see the cerci to confirm

 
I thought about that one
I have confirmed individuals of that species from there but this one just looked different. I went back thru my discarded shots and found 1 that shows just a hint of the cerci so adding it now but don't think it shows enough for what you want to see.

Never mind, turns out it was just the unedited version of the first photo. so nope, didn't get a shot of that area. deleting the 3rd photo
