See I would say female...but this is based on the "tropical" and what I know of them...I dont know about this type of scorpion...but...I will still say female...but not that I have a clue really. hehehe

Nine is a small number of teeth for any species . . . and they both have really tiny pectines. My educated guess on scorpion anatomy would suggest that both are female.
