Male or Female?

Both of my other nymphs are male but their segments at the end are more spread apart. I’m pretty sure this one is male too but I just want to make sure. There’s a segment at the bottom, that’s why I started at two.

Giant Rainforest Mantis? Was I sent the wrong species?

I just ordered a hierodula majuscula and he’s about I2-3. He arrived brown even though all nymphs of this species I’ve seen are green. I’m worried I got the wrong mantis. Can anyone confirm his species? And will he eventually turn green?
(last picture is one i found online of a timor shield nymph that looks exactly like him)
