I have now read about it on Adrian's site and how you can tell it is a female.
How you found it Dominik I have no idea but it seems to be fairly common and widespread looking at one of your links.

Thanks Maplemoth662 and Dominik.
I am delighted to get that ID and even you can tell me it is a female Dominik.
