Thanks John I suspect we have a lot of records of Isopeda canberrana do you know what are its distinctive features?

I have asked the experts on iNaturalist, who correct all my Isopeda sp. uploads to Isopeda canberrana, for a description but have not got a reply. They apparently are writing something on Huntsman but I have not been able to find anything. Whenever I suggest Isopeda canberrana on CNM it is corrected to Isopeda sp.

Thanks John should be able to access article through National Library. I am probably missing something but Isopeda canberra on the INaturalist record seems to be as bristly on teh Chelicerae as most other Huntsman species?
