@kasiaaus I don't believe this is Paropsisterna lignea. The elytral lines are too thin & numerous. The pronotal markings are also subtly different. I think we’ll find this is Paropsisterna intacta (maybe it wasn’t a known option at the time). I’m going to verify it as such but happy to be corrected😊
