Annoyingly similar to guichenoti but I will go with delicata, happy to stand corrected. P. entrecasteauxii has a divided frontoparietal, undivided here.

Yes I agree with John. Just lacks the mid-vertebral dark stripe usually present in P. entrecasteauxii, but you see them like this occasionally in the ACT and region.

Will, if you think Brian has a point, I would be happy to call it guichenoti. This is one of those in between colour forms that can drive us up the wall. The speckled back does suggest guichenoti?
