My guess... Iridescent Leaf Cylinder Beetle - Aporocera iridipennis http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
Just can't find Mac's colours... http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
This is a 'case bearing' beetle (Cryptocephalinae) They are identifiable by the clothes that don't fit properly - short wing covers. Not young... fully formed adult.
