User's notes

I believe it may be the first CNM record for this species. It was trapped in a drain sump because the broken concrete cover has not been replaced.

There are quite a few records of this species but many of them are recorded as decresiensis which may have been confusing. It used to be called decresiensis but a revision relegated decresiensis to small area in SE SA. All the CNM records of decresiensis should be changed to talbingoensis

wombey, thank you.
I should have said that it may have been the first record for Dryandra Street Woodland.
