Thanks Eathan. There doesn't seem to be a lot around about Elassoctenus, I can't find any records in Canberra. Do you know much about them?

There are some records on INaturalist around the ACT that are ID'd as Zorinae (a subfamily within Miturgidae) due to conflicting identifications with Argoctenus which are a similar genus, I don't know too much about them but only one species has been described from WA in 1909 so there's work to be done on the genus, these are likely undescribed.
