well done Cath! a day earlier than last year. Definitely a Melobasis but I'm not sure it is a M. thoracica, Seems a lighter green than ones i have seen (which isn't that many) and the lateral articulation between pronotum and elytra looks straighter than M. thoracica. One for the experts!

Well ! Have now consulted a few experts with these images and those I took two days hence (probably same plant and beetles?). Further examination of pics reveals a reddish margin to the rear half of the elytra, laterally. Consensus now is that these beetles are Melobasis obscurella, an acacia specialist. Well done Cath, if confirmed, a new jewel beetle species for CNM ! :)

...further to the above, Peter Lang's excellent new 'Buprestidae of South Australia' (google it), records that M. obscurella emerges very early in that state, from the second half of August so being our first Buprestid record for this season (3SEP20) is not surprising or out of the ordinary.
