@HarveyPerkins thoughts on this one? I was thinking maybe an Eastern Billabongfly?

This one really highlights the difficulties with some tenerals. The banding of the final abdominal segments is good for Common Bluetail, but the hint of colour at the proximal end of each abdominal segment looks like billabongfly . And the speckled legs look like Red & Blue Damsel. Patterning of thorax and back of head is not particularly useful due to lack of clear focus and sub-optimal angle.
