While FWC's are quite variable in color and pattern (so much that is near impossible to figure-which of the alledged (2 species)I have seen nothing to indicate that they are sexually dimorphic when it comes to color and/or pattern.

My FWC's didn't follow those color rules so I have to be inclined to say that they were full of it!! LOL!!

Males have much longer tails than females though, but if you can find someone to probe them, that would be the best way to know for sure.
