? Chorthippus apicalis, Álora, 24.05.23 (1 Viewer)

I've no previous experience of this species and have no images / descriptions of it in any of my books. A lot of images of males out on the web but very few females.

I got some pics of a few females of what I think are female Chorthippus apicalis (based only on the fact that they don't fit the descriptions of the other Chorthippus species known from Málaga province). They appear to be somewhat shorter-winged than in images titled female Chorthippus apicalis that I have found.

Anyone able to confirm / correct the iD ?

Two different individuals pictured (numbered 017 and 018 within the image)

TIA
