This looks like a very good fit for Guerinius shuckardi. One particular observation below was ID’d by Dr Graham Brown & location is pin-point geographically. To note, we also have similar sightings recorded on NatureMapr under Zaspilothynnus (Genus) but I cannot find any independent source of photos to compare the two Genus successfully. The images I’ve seen don’t seem to fit like Guerinius does.

Hi @DiBickers thanks for working on this. I was hoping to suggest you might check all the existing L. frontalis sightings as I had not ever looked at them in any depth and don’t have a lot of spare capacity at the moment
