Sorry - I meant pagenstecheri - just realised I'd clicked the wrong one initially

Normally this would be hard to identify from a front on photo. However the treeless grassland location is typical of P. pagenstecheri and i can just see parts of some of the pale and dark stripes. In this part of the ACT region P. entrecasteauxii is a brown colour with just a dark lateral line. This is a good record.
