Hi Shane, your size estimate is a bit out as this butterfly, both male and female are larger than 50mm.

Hi and thanks. Very new to this and I expected I may have been a bit out. Also thanks for confirming the sighting - I thought it was an Imperial Jezebel but could not see where to identify what I had sighted in the online form so just wrote it in the comment section. I am sure if I sight and record other fauna I will improve!

Thanks Shane, you were spot on with the ID, this one is located under the categories: Insects, Butterflies, Whites & Yellows. If you haven't got the NPAACT publication on ACT butterflies, then I can highly recommend it: https://www.npaact.org.au/index.php/publications#fg-bflies
