Thanks for your interesting suggestion, @MichaelMulvaney. I'm only finding a few examples of this species on websites, but your suggestion reminded me that I had a more recent sighting of a similar beetle. I have uploaded the images (sighting 4671729).

Sorry, will try and remember to get more images of plants the Psychidae are on

Unconfirmed identification.
Requires checking more candidate Lauraceae botanical plant family's species, occurring in this region,
to disprove this identifies to any other species or to an undescribed species.

For example to disprove that this plant identifies to _Endiandra introsa_ (an alternative candidate species hypothesis to test).

And i have yet to check this sighting's photographed plant out in the
Rainforest Plants of Au : Rockhampton to Vic. information system (app and computer software),
including botanically keying this sighting out there and re-reading and checking the spp. descriptions there.
