Isopedella victorialis is similar and could potentially be another possibility, however it seems to have more white patches on its legs and the pattern and colouring seems a little different. Also, it seems to be concentrated in Victoria, with some in southern NSW too.

Wonderful Yumi. Many thanks for all your hard work, I'll try and get some better pictures if I ever see it again.
