Moin Ray, I think it's female Solieria pacifica.

Hi Theo, female/male not the first time for me and Solieria:where are the male characters?

Male and female are totally identical in oacifica, except for genitalia.

Thanks Theo - now I understand: without genitalia pacifica is neither female nor male ;)
