Looks highly likely, although both the ALA and iNaturalist map it with a primarily northern NSW , Qld and central Australian distribution. Perhaps blown in on the gusty northerly winds we've been having?!

ANIC has a couple of ACT specimens, and this is about as far south as it's been recorded. Many records from northern Australia.
