 Okay

Id say the ones on the bottom are the females .

This is basically what to look for:

Males:
-Call
-have rougher pimplier skin
-have thicker forearms/front legs
-do a special "unmounting call" when another male accidently goes into amplexus with it
-have nuptial pads

Females
-dont call
-have smoother skin
-tend to be slightly larger ( but not always)
