Thanks @PeterA - I was tossing between the two, but eventually went with the other when comparing with sighting 4607168
and 4607167 - but looking at the comments on those again I think the ID may be reversed?

Yes, a bit confusing, Anna. Both 4607167 and 4607168 have E. ephippiata and E. adelaidae males roosting together!
