Helen. Yesterday I visited the Googoong catchment reserve about 1 km from the Burra Reserve where a large population of Ks exists. I shuffled through a couple of hectares of Themeda/Chryso grassland that looked emionently suitable for Keyacris but saw nothing.

I think I've been very lucky. Hopefully more turn up elsewhere
