It's difficult to ID from photo but FA measurement is good for male N.gouldi

Yes, I was a bit quick to jump to an id of N timoriensis, before looking at a few references. The specimen will be lodged with the CSIRO Australian National Wildlife collection, so I hope to get an identification from there.
