Hi Tim,
Your sighting appears to be a male Sandalodes sp - I will reaffirm the distinguishing features between the 3 possible species of ACT and get back to you (unless someone else does before me :))
Thanks,
Yumi

The field guide by Whyte and Anderson has a little information on Sandalodes species, but this is what I refer to for more detail if you are interested in taking a look at the differences yourself:

I have also put the above link into the species description for Sandalodes sp (genus) just in case - all the best!
