This is clearly a worn specimen but I think it matches this species. The species has an Australia-wide distribution and is known to erupt to the south-east occasionally including Canberra. The dark thorax matches CNM Sighting No 4372955. There a few worn (but not so worn as this one online), see https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/71039795.
