Flowers look a bit Boronia like, but not the leaves?

Lambertia inermis var. inermis. Leaves look longer and glossy green compared to the round grey-green felty leaves of L. inermis var. drummondii further west in the Stirling Ranges.

Growing on leaf litter covered soil in Barron Gorge National Park. Can't tell if its plant or fungi??!

Pternistria
Identified as Pternistria bispina on Bowerbird by Matthew Connors: "Found it!"

It could be Mictis caja, but unsure.

Good old Phyllocharis. This species is common here but I am not sure what it is. It is quite similar to P. cyanicornis. I should go through and have a look at some point. Later...

The pattern of spots on this beetle is a bit different - is it a different species of Phyllocharis or just a variation of P. cyanicornis?

There seems to be a lot of variation in the arrangement of spots in this species

a few of the many seed ticks removed from our clothing today

Male and Ffemale

Sign nearby called these metallic skinks?

Or something similarly introduced?

Two-Toned Nemertean
Identified as Prosorhochmidae on Bowerbird by Dr Leigh Winsor: "Argonemertes australiensis (Dendy)"

Same as the yellow version?
