look at the body, Fuelleborni are thicker in the body. But with the color I saw, I would say redtop Trewavasae. Side shot would give us more.

By that face I am sure it is a fuelleborni, but not sure what kind.
Red top fuelleborni could be a possibility judging by the colors.

How is the face different on a trawavasae?
However with the bulge I would have to say Fuelleborni. Trawavasea are more flat across the bottom.

Still wanna know how you can tell the difference in the face? Everything I have read and seen says the body is the way to tell. All that I have seen in person too. Can you share how you can tell. Would help identify for others as well.
