Might possibly be Olbonoma triptycha. Do you have a side-on view by any chance?

Sorry Ian, just the one photo

I suggest O. triptycha while also noting this would be the third sighting of this species at the same location. Given the angle of the shot, the foreshortened image has a different look to the other side-on photos posted of this species, with only the white head of this species just visible.

Hi Ian
This specimen was very small - only 8mm long.
The other two O. triptycha were larger, 13mm, see: http://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Sightings/Details/3371836
So I think this one might be a different species.

OK, Michael. I've undone this one. The general colour pattern is similar, but the shape, size and 'jizz' is different.
