It may be a cultivar of Correa reflexa, but I'm not 100% sure.

Oooo..@KimberiRP is absolutely right...the elytra are not with 'alternatively prominent' costae! If not Castiarina interstincta then likely both specimens are Castiarina kershawi, but the main subject is really odd for Castiarina kershawi, as it lakes the basal fasciae 'normally' present in Castiarina kershawi. TIf possible, specimens of whatever it is should be collected and deposited in the Australlan Museum, Sydney, as well as in the Australian National Insect Collection (ANIC) at Black Mountain, Canberra. If any further spares I'd be interested in a couple to see if I can match the physical specimens to those of Castiarina interstincta and Castiarina kershawi. I am on Facebook, and can easily be contacted via Facebook Messenger, or WhatsApp. Cheers, Allen

Good find Christine! Interesting that the elytral costae, usually prominent in C. intersticta, don't seem to be apparent in these shots. The character "elytra costate" is a diagnostic one for Barker's (2006) "coeruleipes species group", where he placed C. interstincta.

iNat seems to have split most of the Edosa sp marked like this, without a distinct yellow spot in the brown patch, into Edosa xystidophora
