I can now fairly comfortably suggest this is a last instar nymph of Bermius brachycerus. I have posted another photo (7 Feb 2019) of (what I assume is) the same individual, still lurking in my luxuriant lemon grass plant (the only plant in the garden that resembles the tall, green, coarse-bladed river-side grasses I usually see this species in).
