I thought this was a Notocrypta until closer inspection proved it not to be so.
So glad to finally see this rare one!

Shot this last year but only had time to process it now. I believe this must be the male of Q. monteithi but i can't see the palpi to be sure.
Thoughts?

Agreed it is .
The HW have a uniform dark colour & the abdomen is blackish.
The palpi 2nd segment (labial palps) which covers the proboscis is more bulging.
TL Seow: Cheers.
