Scieropepla polyxesta does not have the thickening at the antennae base, they tend to have yellow around the wing and the wing is more pointed. I am still looking for an alternative suggestion.

@jb2602 (This refers to both of your records). The proper way to deal with location when the information is sensitive is to give the correct location then suppress it. That means only authorised people can access it. Giving a false location is not helpful to anyone, for example people looking at pack structure and extent of area occupied by each of the packs at Gudgenby. If you are unwilling to go along with Nature Mappr rules, it is better to remove this record, but i hope you respect what we do better than that. In my experience the reluctance to reveal dingo locations is from people who think that it means rangers will find out and go kill the dingo. I doubt that is the case in any national park (rangers usually know) but it is certainly not the case in Namadgi, where the rangers are keeping a close eye on which dingoes are where and how they are interacting with people. They are concerned to protect the dingoes from any reaction to a person being injured, so they want to encourage people to behave well.
