Võ Anh Tuấn, Thank you for the comment. Sorry I missed your comment. How to identify the gender in this species? Ovipositor is not visible due to its long tail. Based on the tail, can we identify? I tried to google and found below pic:

I believe top one is male with shorter tail and below is female with longer tail.
