John, this is a really exciting record. As you can see from the species information, it has not been recorded from the ACT previously. It raises the question of whether this individual has 'migrated' here, or if it emerged here and represents a small and possibly very localised 'population'. For now I have listed it as "highly sensitive" and "rare" for CNM purposes.
