Perenniporia ochroleuca seems a plausible candidate (see https://canberra.naturemapr.org/Community/Species/Sightings/6095 ). Did you see what the underside was like?

Hi Heino, have added an image of the underside (just taken). Thanks for your help!

This species, Pycnoporus coccineus, has had a name change (as per Index Fungorum) to Trametes coccinea.

Oh well, that makes it a Pycnoporus! - that was a simultaneous reply to Owen.

Pam - Oh well, a couple of those red/orange polypores were in Trametes before. I'll have to modify my species' notes. Bummer!
