This suggestion of Trigonidium albovittata (Handsome Trig) is based on p311 of "A guide to Crickets of Australia" by David Rentz and Ning Su.

Agree, appearance and distribution match T. albovittatum. I have changed the termination of the species name to match the gender (neuter) of the genus name, as the rules of nomenclature stipulate, although neither AFD nor Rentz & Su comply with the rule in this case.
