Thank you Ethan Beaver for confirming the identification of this species General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee) Ethan Beaver suggests it might be one of 3 species: E. lituratus, E. leucomochla or E. encalypti, but without a live specimen it won't be possible to narrow it down further. | |||||
