This could also be Eurymela fenestrata, as I can see some red on the body. Can you remember if it had any red at all?

I have cropped and enlarged the photo but don't know enough to be able to distinguish the species. E. distincta has red underparts, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurymela_distincta. Photos on ALA don't help me.
