Unsure
Moved from Chrysotus choricus. Specimen now a photo-voucher. Thanks John.

It's difficult to say which species this male is, so I'm going to leave at genus level for now. Robinson's key takes it to couplet 66 fairly easily. The trochanters aren't obviously pale as in C. choricus, although the 3rd antennal is as long as wide.
