Ha ha Neil, not quite, but I was one of the five 'Senior Ecologists' until I retired in late 2016.

I cannot see any Philobotas with plain forewings and a black-edged yellow thorax in BOLD.

I didn’t Don but I could dig it
up and take a picture of it
Is there a reason behind the photo? If for identification I have operated a business called act possum removal for nearly 20 years and I have dealt with quite a few colonies of sugar gliders at Cook, O’Connor, Aranda , Acton and red hill but never in Kingston
Were you the head biologist at parks and conservation about 25-30 years ago?

My first sightings on NatureMapr were Drosera peltata, with hairy sepals. The other ACT species was Drosera auriculata, with hairless sepals. Thes were described in Flora of the ACT, Burbidge and Gray, 1970. Later, the lower altitude species was decided to be Drosera hookeri. Now it seems they will be called Drosera gunniana.
