Thank you Stephen Fricker & Stephen Mahony for confirming the id of this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA) and elsewhere 4 fingers and 5 toes. We haven't managed to catch any yet, so don't have an measurments We can see two supraciliary scales interlocking; as opposed to 1 for M. boulengeri Stephen Mahony said "The supraciliaries are certainly right for M. obscura."
