Thank you Dr Graham Brown for identifying this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA) and elsewhere We originally thought this looked like Aeolothynnus westwoodi, but Graham said "not quite sure, certainly not A. westwoodi which has black legs". | |||||
