Thank you Ethan Yeoman for identifying and John Douglas for helping with the id of this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA) and elsewhere ~6mm long Notice the 4 spines under each of the front legs, plus a couple on top of each front thigh. Ethan said "Sandalodes is quite large and robust, whereas Paraplatoides is flattened (when viewed in lateral aspect)." This one clearly is quite flat. | |||||
