Nice find, well done. Just need to species level. Only the one subspecies in our region.

Status:
ACT - Rare highland resident with restricted distribution (Suzi Bond 2016, 2018).
NSW - Common but very local (Michael Braby 2016).

Nice one @Csteele4

@owenh good to know! How exciting, I just thought they were pretty, and knew it was one of the Blues because of the ants!
