Emerging female.
Found by A.O. (student)
Found as a nymph in the kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum) in the middle of the lawn at 11:10 AM. Only tree nearby was a forest red gum (Eucalyptus tereticornis). The nymph was collected by the student and teacher and emerged over the course of the lesson in the classroom.
First photo was taken at 11:55AM when I first viewed the specimen. By this time the cicada was fully eclosed and the wings fully extended.
By 12:26PM the cicada's wings were still drying, as shown in the second photo.
By 12:34PM (third photograph) the wings had dried out enough to rest beside the body.
Last photo shows the adult coloured up a bit for identification.

Hopping Wasp
Identified as Brachymeria on Bowerbird by Graeme Cocks: "Yes this is Brachymeria. You can see in the 3rd picture that the apex of hind tibia ends in a spine. As Ken pointed out recently, shots from various angles can help with the ID."
