I have added a photo showing more of the underbody if that helps? As you can see, it didn't have the extra stripe on the wing.

Don, i couldn't get your link to work for me, but looking at Bold systems, see

P. ancylotoxa does look like a better ID. The distribution of P. ancylotoxa seems wide enough to include the ACT. Illilanga has posted an excellent image .
Do you agree we should ID it as P ancylotoxa?
