We found several of these Nymph stages on a "needle bush" Hakea sericea. Will go back to see if any Adult stages are around ? Very cryptic camouflage, abdomen resembles a "pine cone" in appearance + very elongate extended "proboscis" (?)

After a bit of searching for an ID I suspect this is Neoboletus erythropus. The original specimen has now been pulled out by some vandal with a stick, but another has appeared since I photographed the first one. Looks exactly the same. It’s about 15cm high, 10cm across cap, pores beneath.

Euryglossa adelaidae
