Thank you Fauna_Mirifica for identifying this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA) and elsewhere ~29mm long. We thought it might be a Sphex gracilis, but we also thought it was worn, so the hair is quite thin on the pronotum on the specimen we found compared to the 2015 paper. | |||||
