I think it is sylvaticus but if anyone knows otherwise with this tricky genus that would be appreciated :)
These bugs are annoying my hibiscus plants a lot and cause mutant growth. The shield bugs especially cause most of the problems. There are over 330 000 insects in Australia and it is hard to identify them but I will try for an exact name.
I've never seen a bug like this before - his head looked like a little, bright red, round pinhead, and he had four tiny things on his back that looked like pom poms, lots of legs, pipe cleaner-like feeler things in the front and back, and little spiky hairs all over. He was crawling on a box of sparklers on my porch at our fourth of July cookout.
edit: according to mscaprikell, he is an Orgyia leucostigma, or White-marked Tussock Moth caterpillar.

First time i have found an adult and as they move so quickly and disappear from view in a blink of an eye i caught this one and photod it in a pot!
RDB1 spp ... nice! :))
selection of Bugs from my garden!...
Normally i am one to shy away from creepie crawlies but now i find myself rumaging around in the undergrowth to find a bug to photograph!
I actually sat watching a cat and mouse game with a spider and an ant whilst i was getting these, its such a different world and every action could lead to DEATH for the bug, simply amazing!!
I am loving my reverse ring & macro extension tubes now!

I caught this on the tire of one of our cars and brought it in. I intended on releasing it after a few photos but instead it laid eggs in my tupperware. :< I fed it and intend on releasing it tomorrow when it's warmer an I guess..I dunno.. raise baby mantises?
It was a fairly overcast morning (common at this location) so initially I stayed near the lodge after breakfast.
This was quite a colourful bug. Any help with ID would be welcome.
