This is Castiarina pulchripes. It’s not on the list so is a new record for the ACT.
Can one of the administrators please add this species.
Thanks

@LisaH @MarkH Thanks Mark, This was in the global list, being reported down the coast, so didn't need to add a new species, but yes. the first reported from the ACT.
