Hey @Tapirlord and @Petesteamer . Good evening !
The common name quandong means vastly unrelated different species (in evolutionarily unrelated different botanical families) in different regions of this vast continent .

I let you both work it out. Please start with each species' fruits' colours. Ciaran I removed the confirmation for NM–cred. purposes. We all make mistakes. We all have skills regardless of minority of mistakes.

Elaeocarpus grandis

Yeah.
The specific of these fruits and the dropped old characteristic–form and red-coloured leaves on the ground, considered together do fairly fit _Elaeocarpus grandis_ and unlikely any other _Elaeocarpus_ spp.,
yet not quite disproving enough all the other plausible species identification candidates to confirm this sighting as _Elaeocarpus grandis_ .

Elaeocarpus sp.

Not _Syzygium smithii_ superficially similar foliage and different fruits shown here.
When time i will look into this sighting more, conferring with the candidate spp. in this region .

This is a bit tricky. Thalassodes sp. and Pelagodes sp look quite like this moth but most specimens have pointed hindwings, not rounded like this moth. Could it be Prasinocyma albicosta?
