Probably Lampropholis but being out of focus it would have been handy to confirm with an undivided frontoparietal

Given the very high elevation, and location in snow gum forest, this is more likely to be Pseudemoia entrecasteauxii. They often have that dark mid vertebral stripe like guichenoti. I have done several surveys at Snowy Flats just near here and don't remember ever seeing guichenoti in the surrounding forest.
