yes, left=male, right=female, However, it is possible that both are different species. Left = possible caprai, right = possible saullii. The left one will never be sure withouth dissecting the genitalia, and if you can provide a photo of the female in lateral view it wil help. If the posterior apices are upturned or not may be helpfull and the shape of orange spots on the lateral tergites are also usually diagnostic.
