From what i can make out from the skin photo it looks if there is a flap or its just another piece of skin standing up between the first 2 booklungs , if not then it is female . It just looks different from what i think they look like.

The start of it all.....

Here is a pic from my P cambridgei female for reference.
Louwtjies paint picture is pretty accurate :)
The cambridgei and irminia spermatheca are similar (paired) but not identical.

Like louwtjie said, looks like theres a flap in which case it is female.
The flap is the uterus externus. Just for interest sake
