Aglaophon variusObserver
handroidDescription
Ponderously and noisily flew over to land directly in front of me while I was moving through the brush. Near twilight, in brigalow-type eucalypt and acacia forest near dry riverbed. Lots of other life in the area, from macropods to bats to crab spiders. Sighted in the nearby sister-station to Bimblebox Nature Refuge (https://bimblebox.org/).

Scolypopa kurandaeObserver
matthew_connorsDescription
Okay, what can we do with this? From this key we can definitively rule out everything except Ricania and Scolypopa, and while it doesn't reaaaaally look like Ricania, it does have an extremely close resemblance to Scolypopa kurandae:
So I'll tentatively go with Scolypopa for now. It's not S. australis, the common species. It's not S. stipata either:
The description of S. scutata is here (translation here); it is fairly different. The description of S. aphrophoroides is here and there is a figure of the female here (Fig. 7); they are again quite different. Here's an image of a specimen as well:
(as an aside, that one looks like it might need to be moved to Aprivesa!)
So yes, mine would seem to be S. kurandae!
