Not sure which named Fraus (genus) species would best fit.
Perhaps Fraus marginospina although that species seems to be a dry country species (eg. SA, western Victoria)

F. orientalis (Eastern Fraus) has a more eastern range better suiting where this record was made.

There is brown stripiing which would correspond roughly to F. orientalis.
