One specimen collected in ACT had 7 apical teeth on the first tarsomere. This situation was only present in one leg, the other leg displayed 6 teeth as in all other specimens of this species. Therefore this appears to be an aberration. The specimen from Mt. Buffalo deviates slightly from the colour description given above as it is generally darker in colour.
