According to the ALA, C. glycina and C. prasinopis are very similar looking and have a similar distribution in Australia including coastal NSW. C .prasinopis also occurs in PNG. Judging from the detailed verbal description given comparing the two species, I think this likely C. glycina because 'a moderate postmedian fascia parallel to the termen' seems to be present in this specimen.
