Amazing find. Great to see the small wildlife of Vanuatu. I know of a few species from Australia but your spottings will be very interesting.

Thanks Bayucca.. I have been puzzled myself.. but thought I saw something similar in Australia. Now I cannot find it. I will contact someone.

Do not ask me what this guy is doing on Vanuatu. But in my eyes there is no other possibility than being an intrusive species. I am not sure if you should report this finding to the authorities?
