Given the foreshortened presentatation and an assumed small size I think Opogona comptella is a possible identification although I'm not sure. The whitish antennae would fit O. comptella.

While P. placochrysa would appear ro be a plausible ID for this moth, we cannot see the head in focus so we cannot be sure its it fits the Lithosiini subfamily. As far as I can see P. placochrysa is only known to occur extreme North Queensland (Cape York) and there are only a few records visible online. Also two small yellow dots which should be visible near the termen are not present.

A new species for NatureMapr's Canberra and Southern Tablelands region. Nice photo.

Hi Hejor, yet another new species for CNM - congratulations! This ant seems to be pretty uncommon in the Canberra region, and I have only ever seen it previously at Mulligan's Flat. Great to know it is able to survive in the suburbs as well. Cheers, Jon

This might be Lasioglossum (Chilalictus) erythrurum or Lasioglossum (Homalictus) punctatum. The former would carry pollen mostly on the hind legs and the latter mostly under the abdomen. The sculpture on the top of the thorax is also different in the two species.

Lasioglossum sp.
