Thank you Prof Előd Kondorosy for identifying this species for us General Species Information: Found in the Adelaide Hills and possibly elsewhere We thought it looked very similar to D. cephalotes; but we weren't sure because of the excess red on the shoulders and lack of black lateral lines on the back. | |||||
