Thanks Mark, I'll add the species which is Soap or Cole’s Wattle.
Hi Barbara. Another cutie. With these little beetles it is often helpful for an ID to note the plant species it is with.
[while I think of it the 'habitat' section above is meant to be for the immediate situation of this specimen t rather than general species habitat. eg. 'On long-leafed acacia shrub near open scrubby salt flats']
Nice!
