Is there a way with gross features to distinguish Threticus from Quatiella?

North America I suppose. They very much look the same, to me.

I found something. https://www.googl...nFYM29GWSQ

This article states Threticus have three tenacula and Quatiella have only one. Of course this doesn't help for 99.9% of the photos out there.
