Ibaird, several more hanging out tonight, so I tried to get better images of the antennae.

Thanks, Christina. Its tricky, but based on your first image, I.m inclined to think the antennae in colour and shape match O. australis based mainly on the other identikfied samples on CNM, but I stand to be corrected!
