Thank you Dr Marina Cheng for confirming the id of this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA), the Adelaide Hills and elsewhere It's important to clarify that Marina comfirmed our identification on the 1st photo only. She hasn't seen the others, which we have extrapolated ourselves. As always, id of invert's by photo is always suspect but is the only tool we have. Any photographic site like ours can only be considered a guide. But if you only have photo's too, then matching to ours here is a reasonable guess. Our site is a good start for locals to then begin your research to confirm elsewhere. | |||||
