I've suggested P. denotata if only because it looks similar to the specimen already named as such on CNM i.e.Sighting No 3389295 by Pete Woodall also recorded nearby at O'Connor. However the relative status of P. denotata and P. transvestita seems uncertain locally.

Fabulous photo.
It seems to have characters both of P denotata and P. transvestita.
