User's notes
Sighted on a handrail in ANBG's Rainforest Gully and constantly turning away from the camera before jumping off the handrail into the undergrowth. The final three images are not completely in focus as they are intended to show detail of parts of the insect. Thanks to Marcus Leach for the initial sighting.
