毛蟻蜂族 (族 Dasymutillini)觀察者
kerrileeharris描述
This 'in copula' pair flew in and landed on low vegetation (see shot #2 in series), with the male's body encircling (and concealing) the tiny female. The remaining photos show them separating. Moments later he flew off and she climbed down the stem and disappeared among the leaf litter. This was immediately alongside a sandy patch of ground where various crabronid wasps and bees are nesting.
This is a small species ... I estimate the female as less than 5mm long.

Anthidium manicatum
Identified as Megachile on Bowerbird by Karen Retra: "Hi Mitch, I hope I'm wrong, but this looks to me to be a European wool carder bee Anthidium manicatum. The web will give you images and some papers about them, including that apparently it is "the most widely distributed unmanaged bee in the world" and considered a threat to native bee species in other places. Yikes! See what you think."

Unsure. I don't have any photos capturing other angles or details. Possibly Pachyprosopis?
Seen in sunny weather flying around red callistemon flowers.

Bats were nesting inside a hollow in a dead tree. They flew out when we approached the tree and one landed in our sheet that we were using to collect insects with.

A wasp-mimic Syrphidae, Ceriana thank you Tony D. fly on earliest blooming Kunzea in my garden
Identified as Syrphidae on Bowerbird by Tony D.: "Great series Linda. An amazing wasp mimic, with longitudinal wing folding to boot! This is a Ceriana species (Syrphidae) but Bowerbird will not allow just genus selection but instead genus+species, the latter of which I don't know."

This is the pupa of the moth Hylaeora eucalypti, the specimen in observation 58906263 dated 7SEP20.
I collected this specimen a few days after initial observation and supplied it with leaves from the same tree. It dropped from its leaves after 10 days. Placed it in a container with leaf litter and some soil where it made a cocoon among the leaf litter. Cocoon cut open to photograph pupa and returned to cocoon (sewn closed) and awaiting emergence.

This was a popular tree for leaf beetles. Many different species seen in under 10 minutes. Other similar looking trees had few if any leaf beetles.

A single male bee feeding on Aotus flowers.
Identified as Hylaeus (Planihylaeus) daviesiae ... first through a match with CNM
https://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Sightings/Details/3852161
And then I checked the original description (Houston, T.F. 1981. A revision of the Australian hylaeine bees (Hymenoptera: Colletidae). II. Australian Journal of Zoology Supplementary Series 80: 1-128) – and it seems a match!
Subsequently, Michael Batley agreed with ID.

The photos of this species on ALA seem wildly divergent, but I am assuming the three black spots on the head are diagnostic. Seen on Eucalyptus meliodora.
