Thank you Cael Gallery for identifying this species for us

General Species Information:
Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA), the Adelaide Hills and elsewhere
Male are ~11 to ~15mm long. Surprisingly we found 2 females (perhaps juvi male?) that were ~9mm & ~17mm long. This seems a large size difference so possibly juvi or different species.

This species is
