Dear Charles, This species is rarely seen. I did 17 days survey on Beecroft in 1996 and did not see one. Coyne et al. did get one in 1979 but these data are not on the records!

Yes I had this species in the South Pacific Heathland twice over the last couple of years, and also seen at Dolphin Point on the potholes dirt road

Dear Charles,
I have just sent all the old records that I had reviewed for Beecroft and Booderee NP to Jennifer. She has forwarded these to Michael so lets see if they are uploaded. So many old records have slipped through the net - so to speak.
