I am going for this species because of the narrow leaves, but please check.

in this case the petals of flowers were the object of appetite though other jewel beetles eat other areas of a plant....

There is overlap in C.ericifolim, C. taxiforlium and C. ellipticum, which makes things difficult. I will soon be recording a sighting of C. ericifolium at Beecroft Peninsula recorded today.
