It appears to be Ctenolepisma longicaudatum, however the identity of this species is currently unde investigation. There appears to be two very similar species in Australia. The one with 5 papillae on each labial palp is the true Ct. longicaudatum and the other with about 10 papillae appears to be genetically distinct and under investigation.

Definitely belonging to the Atelurinae, and almost certainly the tribe Atopatelurini. It is not possible to identify to genus without a good quality image of the ventral abdomen, without the legs obscuring abdominal segments I-VI.
