Please can you take a lateral view as well as dorsal? Lateral views are easier to identify.

I always try to take a lateral view as well but I will try harder :-)

There are 101 named Australian Macrobathra species and about 50 un-named ones on BOLD Systems 4! Perhaps its an undescribed species.

I can't find it at ANIC, named or unnamed, but It's similar to a few specimens from WA that may be Macrobathra.
