Thank you Matt Campbell & Geoffrey Cox 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 The males & females of these are VERY different, you wouldn't recognise them as the same species. The female has a very white base colour, where as the male is more grey; and the orange flecks on the spread out rather than being in the narrow black region like with the females. | |||||
