Hi Daniele! Thanks for the link. He looks a bit closer. I think maybe I should just name it as Cicindela species. Thanks for your help :)
Leanne how about this one?http://museumvictoria.com.au/bugs/image....Genus Cicindela too, but I'm not sure of the species...
Thank you Martin, Lauren & Lenny for help with the ID of this cool little speedster. Lenny, the name you gave seems to not occur here in Australia?
Puritan Tiger Beetle Cicindela puritans
These Tiger Beetles are sooooo beautiful and golden like the sand...
This looks like a tiger beetle
