Beetles approx. 1cm long, swarming over the flowers of Terminalia carpentariae.
I agree. It must be a member of Lycidae ("net-winged beetles"). I don't know the Australian fauna well enough to come of with a more precise ID.
Definitely looks like a Net-wing, seems like a large difficult to I.D group though. http://www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_...
