The Mealybugs here are on Macrozamia fraseri.
This (old) research discusses the interaction between ants and mealybugs on Macrozamia reidlei, how the ants serve to assist the bugs, reducing sooty mold.

A small Blackwood was coated with these elongate cushiony scale things. Not at all exciting, but need to get their bit of attention. It looked like this upper one may have had something else invade or escape. I think it is Pseudococcidae?

Unsure what I am seeing here as it appears to be eggs on a stalk, a scale insect and inside an exuvium or empty pupal case. Maybe together by co-incidence?

A smooth ovoid gall about 7 mm long apparently arising from the stem at the base of a flower bud cluster. It was difficult to see the exact point of attachment of the gall.
The gall had a small opening at the free end.
Spotted on what looked like a peppermint gum in a national park .
