Flip them over, The males have 2 nodes on the very back legs. Females have nothing, easy to sex when you see it a couple of times.

Throw some pics up if you can, I might be able to tell you what they are.
If not Im sure someone here would know. It has something to do with how many spines/ridges they have on their head.

Cheers
