Leioproctus (Leioproctus) amabilis f IMG_3160AA
Leioproctus (Leioproctus) amabilis on Leucopogon. At least that's what I think it is. The metallic colouring and the stiff brush of hairs on the tip of the abdomen suggests Leioproctus and L.amabilis is apparently very variable in colour. This photo www.flickr.com/photos/koolbee/8536744196 shows a red purple abdomen.
The white stuff on the thorax seen on the last photo looks like bird droppings but it would be a pretty small bird :-)
